St. Pauli
In Matchday 13, Alexander Blessin's side suffered a 1-2 defeat to Bayer. This loss marked their eighth defeat in the current Bundesliga season (3 wins, 2 draws). The club is in 15th place in the league table, with their nearest rival, Heidenheim, trailing by just one point. Notably, in home matches of the 2024/25 Bundesliga, the team has scored only three goals, the lowest among all clubs in the tournament.
- No more than three goals have been scored in 5 of St. Pauli's last 6 home league matches.
- At least one team failed to score in 5 of Alexander Blessin's side's last 6 home games in this tournament.
- The club has scored no more than one goal in 6 of their last 8 Bundesliga matches.
Werder
In the last round of the German championship, the team defeated Bochum 1-0. Ole Werner's side has lost only twice in their last 7 matches in this tournament (3 wins, 2 draws). The club is in 10th place in the Bundesliga table, just two points away from the European competition spots.
- At least two goals have been scored in the first half of 5 of Werder's last 7 away league matches.
- Both teams scored in 6 of the team's last 8 away matches in this tournament.
- No fewer than three goals have been scored in 5 of the club's last 7 away Bundesliga matches.
St. Pauli vs. Werder: Match Prediction
Alexander Blessin's side has not been convincing in home matches – the club has failed to win 5 of their last 6 home Bundesliga games (3 draws, 2 losses). In those matches, St. Pauli managed to defeat only a direct competitor in the battle for survival, Holstein Kiel (3-1), and failed to secure three points or score against more prestigious opponents.
Werder, on the other hand, has shown decent results in their away matches in the German championship – Ole Werner's side has not lost in 7 of their last 9 away league matches (5 wins, 2 draws). Notably, the team did not lose to such formidable opponents as Leipzig (1-1) and Wolfsburg (4-2), who are currently in Champions League spots.
I believe the visitors will earn points in the upcoming match. My prediction: Werder to win or draw
