Bochum vs Werder Bremen Prediction and Betting Tips | December 7th 2024

Bochum will host Werder Bremen at Vonovia Ruhrstadion on Saturday in another round of the 2024-25 Bundesliga season. The home team have endured an abysmal campaign so far this year, resulting in the dismissal of head coach Peter Zeidler a few months into his reign at the club. The side are now looking to climb up from the bottom of the pile.

They were beaten 1-0 by Augsburg last time out, falling behind in the first half and failing to find a way back into the contest: an overall disappointing performance on the road.

Werder Bremen, meanwhile, have struggled for results in the league this season, but remain on course for survival. They played out a 2-2 draw against Stuttgart in their last league outing but returned to winning ways during the week - they beat Darmstadt 1-0 in the DFB Pokal with Anthony Jung scoring the sole goal at the death.

The visitors sit 12th in the league table with 16 points from 12 matches and will be aiming to pick up some form in the Bundesliga starting this weekend.

Bochum vs Werder Bremen Prediction

Bochum are on a run of back-to-back defeats and are without a competitive win all season. They are winless in their last seven home games and are likely to struggle here.

Bremen, meanwhile, are on a run of back-to-back unbeaten outings after losing two of their three games prior. They have lost their last two games on the road but should have enough to snap that streak on Saturday.
