- Venue: Volkswagen Arena (Wolfsburg)
The seventh matchday of the German Bundesliga sees Wolfsburg welcome Werder Bremen to Volkswagen Arena, where both sides are eager to secure vital points to escape the lower ranks.
During the previous season, Wolfsburg put their nearly thirty-year Bundesliga tenure at risk, yet they miraculously found a way to escape danger, concluding the campaign only four points above the relegation spots. The current 2024-25 domestic campaign has not brought any significant improvement for Ralph Hasenhuttl's men, who have managed to pocket a paltry seven points from a possible 21, a tally that sees them stuck in the same position they finished last season.
On the other side of the field is the Werder Bremen squad, who certainly experienced a stroke of bad luck last season, having missed European qualification solely due to goal difference, falling short by just a single goal in the tight race. When it comes to the current season, the River Islanders can take some comfort in their position in the lower half of the table after enduring a mixed start that saw them register two wins, two draws, and an equal number of losses in their opening six league matches.
Wolfsburg vs Werder Bremen Betting Tips : OVER 2.5
Undoubtedly, each side will consider Saturday's clash an excellent chance to claim the entire bounty, and with that in mind, we anticipate fireworks all around as the crowd at Volkswagen Arena revels in an action-packed football spectacle. We cannot overlook the fact that both sides favor an aggressive attacking approach with their guard often down, resulting in matches adorned with goals, and we anticipate they will keep delivering thrilling and fruitful football. Truly, Wolfsburg's string of four straight top-tier games has resulted in a remarkable 18 goals, and their opponents Werder Bremen are not lagging much, recording 16 goals in that timeframe, creating an anticipation for a high-scoring clash. Furthermore, the encounters between these two teams have proven to be highly efficient as the 2.5 line has been surpassed in five of the last six meetings, which is yet another reason why we lean towards a bet on goals since both sides appear vulnerable defensively while being exceptionally skilled in attack.

Wolfsburg team news
Ahead of the seventh Bundesliga matchday, Wolfsburg is grappling with several absences and a few players who are not at full fitness, including Rogerio, Kevin Paredes, Lovro Majer, and Lukas Nmecha, all of whom are guaranteed to miss Saturday's action.
Team captain Mattias Svanberg missed his side's impressive 3-1 victory over Bochum just before the international break, but it appears the Swedish midfielder has had enough time to recover for the upcoming match against Werder.

Werder Bremen team news
Vital to Werder Bremen's defense, Marco Friedl will make his comeback after serving a one-match suspension, reuniting with Julian Malatini and Anthony Jung in the defensive trio.
However, the defensive duo of Niklas Stark and Milos Veljkovic is currently in the recovery room, and the list of absentees also includes Jens Stage and Justin Njinmah, both of whom are in the recovery phase.
