Season ticket holders at Weserstadion Platz 11 haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Werder Bremen languishing in the 17th position so far. The guesting Eintracht Frankfurt will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Werder and Eintracht Frankfurt.
Werder Bremen form and stats
Werder Bremen's struggle is real here at Weserstadion Platz 11 with only 6 points collected from 13 Bundesliga games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-3-9. Werder Bremen are slowly digging their own grave here at Weserstadion Platz 11 with the depressing streak of not having won a home league game in eleven attempts. The last victory here came in the Augsburg match.
Defensively the home team are doing well, with their goalkeeper Jiri Pavlenka not having conceded a league goal in 282 minutes.
A strong away win for Werder against Schalke 04 the last match, as Leonardo Bittencourt were on target. Preceding that game was the home draw versus Borussia M'gladbach that ended 0-0.
This is expected to be a close game, with Werder Bremen perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Werder Bremen as a small favourite), we find seven games. Werder has won one of these, drawn two and lost four.
There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Werder, as the Bundesliga home game vs Wolfsburg is only four days away.
The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Werder here at Weserstadion Platz 11 in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (9 from 13 games). Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Werder with 30 goals conceded in these matches.
Eintracht Frankfurt form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Eintracht Frankfurt so far with only 10 points returning home. The records show 3-1-10 (win-draw-lose).
It's the second away game in a row for Eintracht, but there's smiles all around after the 2-1 victory versus Wolfsburg (placed 6th) in the Bundesliga last time out. A draw for Eintracht before that, at their own venue hosting Freiburg (3-3).
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Eintracht Frankfurt playing away and similar expectations, we found six relevant matches. Results were three Eintracht wins, one draw and two defeats.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Mainz 05 in just three days.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Eintracht Frankfurt have scored 15 goals in 14 league games away. The Eintracht manager A. Hütter has some worries about the defense as 31 goals have been conceded in these travels.
