Werder Bremen form and stats

4-5-4 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Werder Bremen in their Bundesliga matches away.

Werder failed to get anything from their last game, a Bundesliga home match vs Wolfsburg (placed 3rd) that ended with defeat 1-2. Preceding that, the 1-3 home loss versus Bayern München.

Werder are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is three wins, three draws and five defeats. From a total of eleven matches.
