Werder Bremen form and stats

With 1 Bundesliga win, 2 draws and 4 defeats from their home games, Werder Bremen are certainly not brimming with confidence. Game days at Weserstadion Platz 11 have recently become somewhat of a nightmare for Werder as they have lost three home games in a row. It hurts.

An away draw last time out for Werder Bremen, facing Bayer Leverkusen in a game that ended 1-1. Preceding that match was the home game against Union Berlin that was lost 0-2.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Werder have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found eight matches with the results: Won zero, drawn three and lost five.

The manager F. Kohfeldt will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Borussia M'gladbach in only three days.

Werder Bremen aren't scoring a lot here at Weserstadion Platz 11 in the league, with only 6 goals from 7 games. Werder have conceded 12 from these games.

Augsburg form and stats

3 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses. That’s the product of Augsburg playing as the away team in the Bundesliga this season. Winning streaks in away matches are not that common, but Augsburg are close to a proper streak after winning their two previous away games.

Augsburg failed to get anything from their last game, a Bundesliga home match vs Stuttgart (placed 10th) that ended with defeat 1-4. Before that one, a nice away victory 1-0 at Köln.

Augsburg goalkeeper Rafał Gikiewicz had a great day against Stuttgart, but despite making six saves the loss could not be avoided.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Augsburg playing away and similar expectations, we found eight relevant matches. Results were six Augsburg wins, zero draws and two defeats.

A quick return to home after this game, as Augsburg are hosting Bayern München in the Bundesliga only four days away.

Augsburg are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 8 away goals from 7 games (in the league). Augsburg have conceded 8 goals in these away matches.

Head 2 Head

Werder-Augsburg H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Werder Bremen five wins, Augsburg five wins, zero draws. ten of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
