Will Werder continue their outstanding away record?
The DFB Cup week ended with contrasting emotions for Borussia Mönchengladbach and Werder Bremen. While the men from the Weser reached the round of 16 with a 1-0 away win in Paderborn, the foals were knocked out 2-1 in Frankfurt despite being a man up for over 70 minutes. Coach Gerardo Seoane, who was already under fire, suffered the next setback and will probably have to fear for his job if there is another defeat on Sunday afternoon. Logically, the tense relationship between coach and team in the Lower Rhine region must be taken into account when predicting the outcome of the game.
In the table, there are currently only two points between these clubs. Nevertheless, ninth place in northern Germany is judged much more positively than eleventh place for Borussia, also due to the performances shown. Although the Foals have won their last two home games, the Hanseatic team must be given a realistic chance of getting the away win, especially considering that they have performed better away from home than at home so far this season. In addition to a Gladbach vs. Werder Bremen prediction for the guest, however, one can also consider over-goals.
Particularly noteworthy in the context of the last match on Matchday 9 of the Bundesliga between Gladbach and Werder Bremen are the odds on more highlights in the second half. In an isolated table of the first 45 minutes, both teams rank 17th and 16th respectively. Meanwhile, the ranking of the second halves spits out the clubs in fourth and third position.
Gladbach vs. Werder Bremen forecast AI
Predicted goals from 1.74 to 1.69 testify to this. Since the win probabilities in the three-way market are thus relatively close together, the tendency is rather in the direction of an away win. However, the Gladbach vs. Werder Bremen AI prediction is for Under 3 goals (AHC). The reason for this, according to “BETSiE”, is that the odds for this Asian under-bet are too high. Personally, however, I go against the artificial intelligence with my tip and expect a goal-filled match in the Borussia Park.
Gladbach – Statistics & current form
At Borussia Mönchengladbach, the house blessing is once again badly out of whack. The background to this is the almost embarrassing elimination in the DFB Cup on Wednesday evening. Despite being outnumbered for over 70 minutes, the foals in Frankfurt ran into dreaded counters twice and found hardly any offensive solutions to overcome the massed SGE defense.
In the end, a 1-2 defeat, which once again made it clear that the problems at the traditional club from the Rhineland are currently more profound than many might think possible. It is also fitting that last Saturday in the “Current Sports Studio”, goal scorer Tim Kleindienst said that you “have to get along with the current coach”. Satisfaction, team spirit and a good cabin atmosphere definitely look different.
Does Seoane have to fear for his job?
In view of this disruptive fire, which has long since led to a discussion about the coach, I believe that it would not be justified to bet on a home win at lower odds between Gladbach and Werder Bremen. The team from the Lower Rhine region, which actually has a very interesting line-up, has been too inconsistent in these days, weeks and months. As a reminder, Borussia have now gone two Bundesliga games without a win since the summer of 2022.
At least things are going better in their own stadium, because after two defeats in the first two home games, the following two matches were won in front of a home crowd. Three Bundesliga home wins in a row have not yet been achieved in the entire calendar year. Meanwhile, in the Bundesliga, the Foals have not been able to celebrate more wins than against SV Werder.
The home side need to improve in terms of efficiency in particular. No other team in Germany’s top flight has undercut the xG value as significantly as Borussia. There is often no lack of chances, but a lack of clinical conversion. In addition, there are usually too many goals conceded, because in four of the most recent six league matches, the Rhinelanders conceded two or more goals. Between Gladbach and Werder Bremen, a prediction of Over 2.5 goals therefore seems to make perfect sense. In the Betano app, you can find an odds of 1.50 for it.
Werder Bremen – Statistics & current form
The mood at SV Werder Bremen is currently very positive. More and more fans are slowly realizing that head coach Ole Werner has been getting almost the maximum out of this team for a long time. The fact is that the development curve continues to point upwards and the green-whites are certainly a potential contender for the European Cup places in their current form. If you consider that the players from the Osterdeich have already had to play against Leverkusen, Bayern or Dortmund, then the current ninth place is even more impressive.
Bremen is one of the best away teams in the Bundesliga
The Werner team has put in some great performances on the road so far. Ten of their twelve points have been earned in away games. Against comparable opponents such as FSV Mainz 05, Hoffenheim and Augsburg, Werder have recently celebrated three away wins in a row. Twelve goals scored in just four away games is also an impressive figure. For the first time in their Bundesliga history, Bremen could now win four (!) away games in a row.
I am not averse to such a prediction between Gladbach and Werder Bremen and argue, among other things, that the Hanseatic team – unlike their upcoming opponents – were able to significantly improve their own xG value. The former German champions are currently making a lot out of a little, which was also evident in their 1-0 win in Paderborn on Wednesday evening.
The self-confidence and also the individual quality, for example in the person of Marvin Ducksch, currently the best German scorer in the Bundesliga, is there, which is why you can definitely aim for a win bet on SV Werder in either the two-way or the three-way market.

Gladbach – Werder Bremen Head to Head Comparison / H2H Record
Werder Bremen have only won one of their last 15 Bundesliga matches against Gladbach (1-6-8). In the recent past, however, the tide has turned in that the Hanseatic team have now not lost to the foals four times in a row. This is the longest unbeaten streak of the Weser kickers against Borussia since the late 70s. Also interesting: in the last five encounters, the over 3.5 would always have passed. A spectacle seems to be pre-programmed on Sunday afternoon.
Gladbach vs. Werder Bremen Betting Tip
Last season, there were two 2-2 draws between Gladbach and Werder Bremen in each half of the season. I also expect a lot of goals at Borussia Park on Sunday afternoon. Betting on Over 2.5 seems like a good idea.
First and foremost, I am tempted by the away win for Werder. Werner’s team is still unbeaten in four away games this season. They have managed to get ten out of a possible twelve points. What’s more, Ducksch and Co. have already scored a total of twelve goals away from home. The green-and-whites have left opposing stadiums as winners three times in a row.
So before the game between Gladbach and Werder Bremen, I’m going to try my luck with the DNB 2, where I’m even hedging against a possible draw. Nevertheless, the maximum odds are an impressive 2.40, which makes it worth a stake of five units.
