Werder Bremen team overview
Werder Bremen are coming to this season after a decent last one, where they finished 8th with 51 points, eventually just one point away from European spots. However, the start to this season has been far from an expected one, considering they have won just one point in the first two Bundesliga games and suffered elimination from the DFB Pokal against Armenia Bieliefeld.
One of the reasons for a slow start is the injuries. Up to seven players could miss the upcoming game against Borussia M'Gladbach. Most of those injuries (four) are on their central defenders. Now, after receiving a red card in the previous game, another central defender (Niklas Stark) will be suspended, and coach Horst Steffen will have a difficult task ahead of him.
Still, during the international break, the club was active, adding Puertas Camaron and Boniface Victor.

Prediction
While both teams won just one point in the first two Bundesliga games, looking at both teams' overall performances across the competitions, Borussia were a lot better. Including friendlies, they lost just once in the last seven matches. Their loss (1:0) came against Stuttgart, in a match where they deserved at least a draw, if not more.
On the other hand, Werder Bremen was terrible in the league, the cup, and in the last friendly matches. During the previous seven games in all competitions (friendlies included), Werder Bremen lost six times.
Also, in the previous h2h games, Borussia M'Gladbach were a lot better, especially in the previous season, where they won both games with a combined goal difference of 8:3.
Considering all the above, but especially the trend in the previous h2h games, we believe that the hosts are much closer to winning the upcoming Bundesliga tie.
3 Reasons why Borussia M'Gladbach should win
- Borussia M'Gladbach lost once in the last seven games (friendlies included)
- Werder Bremen won one point in the previous seven games, including friendlies
- Borussia M'Gladbach won the last two h2h games
