Hoffenheim vs Werder Bremen Betting Tips: BTTS
After kicking off the 2024-25 Bundesliga season with a five-goal thriller over promoted side Holstein Kiel at home, Hoffenheim have failed to earn a single point in their subsequent three matches, leaving them precariously positioned just above the relegation line.
As they aim to halt their downward spiral, Die Kraichgauer will be disrupted by a vulnerable defense that has leaked goals in each of their first six matches across all competitions.
At the same time, it's important to note that Matarazzo's selections have been exceptionally creative and skillful in the final third, as they have managed to find the net in every match since the start of the new competitive campaign, with BTTS featured in every instance.
With 11 goals conceded, Hoffenheim holds the second-weakest defensive record in Germany's top flight, providing the perfect opportunity for Werder Bremen to enhance their goal-scoring form, which has struggled early in the season with just four goals to their name.
While they generally started the new Bundesliga campaign well with a win and two draws, matchday four saw the Green-Whites suffer a painful 0-5 defeat at the hands of the ruthless Munich machine, and they will be striving to bounce back as soon as possible.
Furthermore, Werder's backline does not inspire assurance, since the surprising stalemate with Borussia Dortmund at 0-0 stands as the only time Werner's squad has managed to keep a clean sheet in any tournament.
Looking back at recent encounters, we can see that each of the last four matches featured goals from both sides, and we hope that the nets will ripple again, as neither team appears to provide stability at the back.

Werder Bremen team news
Werder Bremen will be without key defender Marco Friedl, who received a suspension after being sent off against Mainz in mid-September, meaning he will miss his second consecutive match in Sunday's duel.
Due to injuries, head coach Ole Werner will be without key duo Milos Veljkovic and Justin Njinmah, paving the way for 20-year-old Keke Topp to potentially earn a starting spot in the attack.
