Werder Bremen and Bayer Leverkusen will be hoping to get off the mark in the Bundesliga for this season when they meet at Weserstadion on Saturday afternoon. Die Werderaner and Die Werkself are 17th and 13th in the league standings, respectively, after the first week. Let’s get into the match prediction!
Horst Steffen’s first league match as the new manager of Werder Bremen ended in disappointment, as he saw his side suffer a painful 4-1 defeat at the hands of Frankfurt.
Notably, after arriving at Weserstadion, Steffen oversaw seven pre-season friendlies and lost the final four before the league campaign began. Die Werderaner also failed to score in three of those defeats.
Under Ole Werner, this week’s hosts ended last season unbeaten in their final four league home games (W2 D2) and maintained clean sheets in each of those matches.
Like his counterpart, Erik ten Hag’s first league match for his new employers ended in defeat, with Bayer Leverkusen squandering an advantage to lose 2-1 to Hoffenheim last week.
Summer signing Jarell Quansah scored Die Werkself’s only goal last week. The team is now winless in four league games either side of the summer break, and conceded two or more goals in each match.
The visitors were the only side to go unbeaten in away games in the league last season. Will Ten Hag be able to keep that record going?

Our Werder Bremen vs Bayer Leverkusen Prediction
While both these sides are coming off impressive top-flight seasons, they are now under new leadership, and it may take a little while before the new managers are able to impart their styles of football on their players.
Notably, neither team looked particularly good defensively, and both conceded cheaply, which contributed to their opening week defeats. We feel there will be a few goals in this one as well. Our Werder Bremen vs Bayer Leverkusen prediction is both teams to score.
