THE LOWDOWN
WERDER BREMEN
Four wins across their last five in the Bundesliga, with three of those resulting in clean sheets. It’s been a successful period for Werder Bremen, who have firmly established themselves in the upper half of the table and may just be eyeing up a European spot if they can continue this good form. Their most recent win came against struggling FC Cologne, a turgid battle but one which Werder came out the right end of thanks to a goal from Justin Njinmah.
DARMSTADT
Darmstadt’s 14th Bundesliga loss this campaign came at the hands of Stuttgart last weekend, although the high-flying visitors had to work very hard for it. Although Darmstadt conceded after only 14 minutes, Torsten Lieberknecht’s men hung on in there for the rest of the game before gambling late on and throwing bodies forward to try and grab an equaliser. This saw Stuttgart punish them at the other end of the pitch to seal their win, despite Darmstadt finally grabbing a goal just before the full-time whistle.

THE PREDICTION
Werder Bremen certainly seem to have found a formula that combines defensive stability with attacking potency and this has been reflected in recent results. The quality of players at Ole Werner’s disposal going forward are expected to find the net at least once against Darmstadt who will certainly struggle to match that away from home. Werder are the better all-round side from an individual and team perspective, so back them to come out on top.
