Werder Bremen vs Hoffenheim Prediction 16.02.2025 | Bundesliga

• Competition: Germany - Bundesliga
• Date: Sunday, 16th, February 2025
• Kickoff: 14:30 UK / 15.30 CET
• Venue: Weserstadion (Bremen)

Werder Bremen will be determined to keep their European hopes alive when they host Hoffenheim in Sunday afternoon’s Bundesliga Matchweek 22 clash.

Despite putting up a resilient fight and holding firm against Bayern's relentless attacks for nearly an hour, Werder Bremen's defensive wall eventually crumbled under the pressure, conceding three times before the final whistle, but a defeat at the Allianz Arena was somewhat anticipated. With that setback, the River Islanders have slipped to 10th place in the standings with 30 points to their name, but they are still well within reach of the European spots by the end of the season, as they sit just three points behind Freiburg in sixth.

While their Sunday hosts are pushing for a strong finish in Germany's top flight, Hoffenheim have endured a turbulent Bundesliga run this year, marking one of their weakest seasons in nearly two decades and forcing them into a tense relegation fight. In their latest league outing, Die Kraichgauer left their loyal fans in disbelief with a dreadful showing that saw them suffer a 0-4 hammering at the hands of fellow bottom-half side Union Berlin, but thankfully the relegation dwellers were unsuccessful in their tasks, leaving Ilzer's men hovering four points above danger zone.

Werder Bremen vs Hoffenheim Betting Tips : WERDER BREMEN TO WIN

The reverse fixture between these rivals was an unforgettable spectacle and a true classic, as Werder pulled off a stunning comeback from three goals down to emerge victorious in a seven-goal thriller, and we believe the Bremen side has what it takes to do the double. The River Islanders have proven to be a tough nut to crack on home turf in recent weeks, holding both Stuttgart and Leverkusen to entertaining 2-2 draws, so they will almost certainly look to capitalize on their home advantage and push for all three points to stay firmly in the European race. Among other things, Hoffenheim’s struggles on the road this season are hard to ignore, as they only been able to turn one of their opening 10 top-flight visits into success, half of those ending up on the wrong end of the scoreline. With their defensive unit in disarray and having been breached 22 times in just seven matches since the turn of the year, Die Kraichgauer look vulnerable once again, which gives Werder the perfect chance to exploit their struggles and claim a crucial three points.
