Dortmund vs Werder Bremen Prediction & Betting tips
League leaders Borussia Dortmund aim to sustain their flawless start to the campaign as domestic football resumes following the international break. Under coach Niko Kovač, BVB sits comfortably at the top of the Bundesliga table with 12 points from 4 matches. Meanwhile, Daniel Thioune’s SV Werder Bremen has mounted a solid response since their opening-day defeat, sitting in 8th place with 7 points. They enter this fixture off a chaotic 3-2 victory over Augsburg, showcasing dangerous transitional play combined with defensive vulnerabilities.
Dortmund:
Center-back Nico Schlotterbeck is a major doubt after picking up a knock while training with Germany, though he is attempting a late fitness test. Fullback Julian Ryerson is highly unlikely to feature. Long-term absentees include Emre Can (ACL) and Giannis Konstantelias (ACL), while youth prospects Justin Lerma and Filippo Mane remain sidelined with muscle injuries.
Dortmund (3-4-2-1): Kobel – Anton, Schlotterbeck (or Gadou), Gadou – Svensson, Nmecha, Veerman, Beier – Nwaneri, Silva – Guirassy..
Werder Bremen:
The visitors arrive heavily depleted across all lines. Felix Agu (calf), Jens Stage (thigh), Justin Njinmah (hamstring), Senne Lynen (groin), Keke Topp (ACL), and Salim Musah (muscle) are completely out. On a positive note, goalkeeper Karl Hein has returned to training after an early scare with Estonia and is expected to start.
Werder Bremen (4-2-3-1): Hein – Arthur, Friedl, Pieper, Deman – Regeer, Reis – Dinkci, Chuki, Grüll – Füllkrug.
