Werder Bremen vs Augsburg Prediction

Werder have a solid home record against Augsburg but have not won their last two home games, playing out a draw and suffering a defeat.

Augsburg, meanwhile, have the joint-worst attacking record in the league, scoring three goals in five games. They have lost their last three games, and given the injury crisis they are facing, they might struggle at Bremen, who should register a comfortable win.

Prediction: Werder Bremen 2-0 Augsburg.
