Werder Bremen
Werder Bremen drew with Bayer Leverkusen in their previous Bundesliga match with a score of 2:2, conceding two goals for the second consecutive tournament match. The team has failed to keep a clean sheet in the last six German championship encounters. Nevertheless, Werder has not lost in 11 out of their last 13 Bundesliga matches (6 wins, 5 draws) and currently sits 9th in the league table, two points ahead of Mönchengladbach. Note that both personal meetings of the previous championship between these opponents ended with the same score of 2:2.

Borussia Mönchengladbach vs. Werder Bremen: match prediction
After drawing with Mainz in the Bundesliga, Mönchengladbach was eliminated from the German Cup this week, losing away to Eintracht with a score of 1:2. Meanwhile, the upcoming hosts' opponent advanced to the round of 16 in the German Cup, defeating Paderborn with a result of 1:0, and did so away from home. Away matches have been successful for Werder this season; they are second only to Bayern Munich in the list of the best away teams in the championship, having won 3 out of 4 matches (1 draw). As mentioned earlier, their undefeated away streak in the tournament spans 6 games.
And in the upcoming match with not so frequently winning Borussia, Bremen can certainly aim to extend it. Mönchengladbach managed to win at their home stadium in only 7 out of the last 9 Bundesliga matches. Werder also did not lose to the upcoming opponent in the last 3 personal championship encounters, all ending in draws with an identical score of 2:2.
I expect that this time the visitors will be able to take points from Mönchengladbach, my prediction is "Werder win or draw" with the odds of .
