Stuttgart will be aiming to move up to second in the Bundesliga standings this weekend when they visit Werder Bremen. The German side comes into this round of matches in excellent recent form after going five matches without defeat.
Bundesliga Preview
The competitive action in the Bundesliga continues this weekend, as Stuttgart will be looking to move up to second in the standings. It has been an excellent season for the German club throughout the campaign, and they appear on course to finish in the Champions League positions. Stuttgart will have no fears surrounding this fixture after winning four of their last five matches.
Stuttgart have also avoided defeat across their last five matches in the league, and only the recently crowned champions of Germany have recorded more wins this term. A victory this weekend could see Stuttgart end the weekend above Bayern Munich in second. They were in excellent form last weekend after landing a 3-0 home success against Eintracht Frankfurt. Serhou Guirassy continued his excellent campaign by netting the opener in that success.
There will be a lot of nervousness surrounding Werder Bremen coming into this round of matches, as their top-flight status is still far from assured. The German club currently sits 12th in the standings, but they are just five points clear of the bottom three places. But, it would be a concern that all teams below them are currently in better form.
Werder have suffered defeats in four of their last five matches in the Bundesliga, with the latest of those coming on the road against Bayer Leverkusen last Sunday. They conceded five goals in that clash, meaning a better defensive display will be required this weekend.
Werder Bremen vs Stuttgart Head to Head
Stuttgart were 2-0 winners in the earlier meeting between the teams this season. That was their fifth success against their rivals in the last nine meetings, with Werder landing just once victory over the same period. But, this exact fixture last term did end in a 2-2 draw in Bremen.
Werder Bremen vs Stuttgart Prediction
Stuttgart have enjoyed a very solid season throughout the campaign, and they look on course for a Champions League finish. This looks a solid opportunity to put pressure on Bayern, as they come up against a Werder side that currently have no shortage of off-field issues.
