THE PREDICTION

A hugely impressive Borussia Dortmund came from behind at Freiburg last time out, winning by three goals to one, emphasising the depth within their squad. Werder Bremen meanwhile, have marked their return to the top flight with two draws, most recently scoring late on to salvage a point against Stuttgart. Worryingly though for Werder, two goals conceded in each of those games emphasises their defensive struggles so far and Borussia Dortmund’s attacking players should carve out plenty of opportunities against them. The hosts are expected to wind up too strong for the newly promoted side, so back a Borussia Dortmund victory.
