On Tuesday evening, RB Leipzig will look to continue their excellent recent form when they travel to Bremen to face Werder at the Weserstadion in the Bundesliga.
Werder Bremen form guideOle Werner’s team currently sits in 14th place in the Bundesliga table, having picked up 15 points from as many games in the German top flight. Despite a precarious position in the table, Werder is still five points clear of the relegation play-off spot.
Werder’s recent league form is slightly concerning, as they have won just once in their previous six outings in the Bundesliga. The home team’s defence has been highly vulnerable of late, as they have conceded at least two goals in five of their previous six games in the German top flight.
Bremen’s recent home record is the definition of inconsistency in the Bundesliga, as they have won two, lost two, and drawn one of their previous five games.
However, Werder has been prolific on home soil in the German top flight, scoring at least two goals in six of their previous seven matches.
RB Leipzig form guideMarco Rose’s team continued their strong recent run of form by recording a 3-1 home win over Hoffenheim, which was their fourth straight competitive victory.
RB Leipzig has also won four of their previous five matches in the Bundesliga. The run has moved Die Roten Bullen up to third place in the standings, seven points behind league leaders Bayer Leverkusen.
Their attacking prowess has played a key role in the recent wins, as they have scored at least twice in all competitions in seven of their last eight games.
Leipzig have a decent recent away record in the Bundesliga, winning six of their previous nine matches in the German top-flight.
What am I backing?RB Leipzig has been in excellent form of late, and I am backing the visitors to extend their winning run to five games.
