Match Prediction: Werder vs. Wolfsburg
February was a nightmare for Werder. Injuries to defenders critically affected an already unreliable defense. Over three matches, Ole Werner's side conceded 11 goals. Notably, in the last round, Freiburg scored five goals against Werder, even though such scoring feats did not help Freiburg shed the title of the least scoring team in the upper half of the table.
Only the top three teams in the championship have scored more than Wolfsburg. In the 2024/25 Bundesliga, Ralf Hasenhüttl's side failed to score in only two matches, while away, the team has a 7-match scoring streak. In 5 of these matches, the club scored at least two goals. Additionally, Wolfsburg has been scoring against Werder in 10 consecutive encounters in this tournament, often scoring more than one goal.
