Werder Bremen play their final home game of the season this weekend, and they will be looking for the one final victory that they require to secure their top-flight status. An in-form FC Köln are the visitors this weekend.
Bundesliga Preview
In truth, it already appears likely that Werder Bremen are safe from the drop this term, but the will need one more point to mathematically confirm their status. Werder currently sits 12th in the Bundesliga standings, but they will be looking to end the season in solid form. However, they will need to get back on track to achieve their highest possible finishing position, as they have lost each of their last three league matches.
Meanwhile, they have registered just a single victory over their previous five in the German top-flight. Werder could count themselves as unlucky in their previous two defeats, as they have slipped to back-to-back losses against Bayern Munich and RB Leipzig. The most recent of those came against the latter, with Leipzig snatching victory in the 96th minute.
FC Köln are one of the sides ending the Bundesliga season in excellent form, and they could yet achieve a top half finish. They will need to win this weekend to keep that dream alive, but they are too far adrift to make a late push for a European finish in the Bundesliga this term.
Köln comes into this clash in excellent recent form, as they have won each of their last two matches. Meanwhile, they have won three of their last four, and have lost just once over their previous five. Their most recent success was a handsome 5-2 win over Hertha Berlin last Friday. Timo Hubers was in eye-catching form on that evening, as he netted a brace.
Werder Bremen vs FC Köln Head to Head
Köln comes into this fixture having gone three without defeat against Werder Bremen. However, they have won just once over that period. But, that success did come in the form of a huge 7-1 success in the previous clash between the sides. Interestingly, seven of the last 12 clashes between these sides have ended in draws.
Werder Bremen vs FC Köln Prediction
Köln’s recent form is very challenging to overlook this weekend. However, a chance is taken on Werder Bremen to record a third home win in four clashes against their rivals, and avenge the heavy defeat that they suffered earlier in the campaign.
