Werder Bremen vs Borussia Dortmund 15.12.2020

Ordinarily, this would have been an easy game to call. Werder are winless in 8 games (5D,3L) and are seemingly struggling to put wins in the wins column jus like they were to finish last season. However, they welcome a Dortmund team that is on the ropes at the moment. They are winless in any of their last 3 Bundesliga games (1D, 2L) and they suffered one of their worst home losses in years at the weekend, losing 5-1 to the visiting Stuttgart side. They are also managerless after parting ways with Lucien Favre following this loss.

This backdrop points to a game that will be very competitive. Werder Bremen will be looking to get out of their own rut and pile up some more misery on Dortmund while BvB will be seeking to put their recent struggles behind them and turn on a new page under caretaker manager Slaven Bilic, who has been put in charge until the end of the season.

Both teams have struggled to find the back of the net in their recent outings. Bremen just don’t score much generally and Dortmund are still trying to adjust without their leading striker Erling Haaland who is ruled out until the end of the year. We do not expect lots of goals in this clash as a result and we are backing Under 3.5 goals to land.
