An intriguing top-four battle between Leipzig and Werder Bremen will be played in Bundesliga matchday 16 on Sunday. This match at the Red Bull Arena Leipzig between the fourth-placed Die Roten Bullen and the seventh-placed Die Grün-Weißen comes with our prediction of goals.
The hosts have 27 points, while the visitors have 25 points, and with only three points separating teams from 3rd to 9th, there’s so much at stake here. Leipzig may be fourth, but a 5-1 away defeat to Bayern before the break underlined their problems.
They have four defeats from their last seven league matches, with only two wins, which is a concern for the hosts. Leipzig still has a good record at home, with only one loss here across seven league matches this season.
Bremen is a team on the up, winning 4-1 at home against Union Berlin for their fourth consecutive win in all competitions. Three of those have come in the league, and the visitors have kept two clean sheets during that sequence.
The away form is pretty impressive too, as Bremen have five wins from their last seven away league games. The last two of those have come in a row, each with a clean sheet, but they may struggle to keep one here.

Our Leipzig vs Werder Bremen Prediction
Leipzig and Bremen are separated by just two points, and the away team will be confident of eating into that gap. That’s also due to Leipzig’s recent defensive record, where they let in 15 goals across their last five matches. That could be a boost to Bremen, who come here with four consecutive wins, three of those coming with a clean sheet. The last five Bundesliga matches between these sides also produced goals, and our prediction for Leipzig vs Werder Bremen is both teams to score and over 2.5.
