Borussia Dortmund vs Werder Bremen Prediction

Borussia Dortmund arrive at this Bundesliga fixture on the back of a five-match winning run, scoring 15 goals and conceding just four across those games. The numbers at their own ground tell a consistent story: over 20 home matches, Dortmund have won 14, drawn 2 and lost 4, averaging 2.3 goals per game while keeping 9 clean sheets. In the two most recent head-to-head meetings, both within the last 12 months, Dortmund won on both occasions — 3–0 at home in January and 2–0 away in May. The matchup table reinforces the picture: Dortmund at home average 2.3 goals per game and concede 1.1, while Bremen away average 1.4 scored and 1.5 conceded across 20 games, with 7 of those 20 ending without a Bremen goal.

The counter-argument is that Werder Bremen are not without quality. Their last five matches produced 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, with 11 goals scored. They beat RB Leipzig 3–1 at home on 5 September and beat Augsburg 3–2 at home on 19 September. Their latest 10 games show 6 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses, and they have not failed to score in any of their last five matches. However, the away record is where the concern sits: 5 wins, 6 draws and 9 losses in 20 away games, with only 4 clean sheets and a 1.05 points-per-game average. The 4–1 defeat at Freiburg on 30 August, in which Bremen's xG was just 0.48, is a reminder of how thin their away output can be.

The head-to-head history stretches back 14 years across 29 meetings, with Dortmund winning 19, drawing 6 and losing 4. But those older games — including the 2–2 draw in January 2025 and the 0–0 in August 2024 — are historical record only and do not reflect current form. The two recent meetings, both clean Dortmund wins, are the relevant evidence.

Key Points:

• Borussia Dortmund won both recent head-to-head meetings (3–0 at home, 2–0 away) and are on a 5-match winning run with 15 goals scored and 4 conceded.

• Dortmund's home record: 14W 2D 4L in 20 games, 2.3 goals per game, 9 clean sheets.

• Werder Bremen's away record: 5W 6D 9L in 20 games, 1.4 goals scored per game, 7 matches without a goal.

• Bremen's last five: 3W 1D 1L, but their away form over 20 games remains the weaker side of the comparison.

• The older head-to-head meetings (2024–2025) are historical and do not carry current-form weight.
