Werder Bremen – Hoffenheim: tricky test at the Weserstadion 
Still chasing a top‑four spot in the Bundesliga, Hoffenheim travel to the Weserstadion to face a wobbling Werder Bremen. The hosts have been hunting a win for six matches; the visitors want to keep the good run rolling.
Werder hunting a second wind 
Autumn looked promising for Bremen. Between October and early November Horst Steffen’s side went five games unbeaten, including three wins that looked like a proper kick‑start.
The end of the year tore that apart. Beaten 3-2 by Hamburg, then thrashed 4-0 by Stuttgart, they later scraped a dull draw at Augsburg just before the winter break. That sequence left them well off the European places and flirting with the relegation scrap.
A win on Tuesday would be their first since beating Wolfsburg in early November and would shove them further from danger. Fail again and the pressure ramps up — Bremen sit only three points clear of Mainz in 16th.
Hoffenheim looking up 
After a quiet 15th last season, Hoffenheim have stepped up. Under Christian Ilzer the club have revived European ambitions that echo their better continental years.
The numbers do the talking: one loss in the last nine Bundesliga rounds, six wins and two draws. Hoffenheim would like to come back from this trip with three points in the bag to put some daylight between themselves and chasing Stuttgart and Leipzig.
The Kraichgauer start 2026 with high targets. One flaw remains: away form. Only one win in their last five on the road — a quirk that makes this trip to Bremen a little trickier.
Compositions probables
Werder Bremen : Backhaus ; Pieper, Friedl, Coulibaly ; Sugawara, Stage, Lynen, Puertas, Schmidt ; Njinmah, Schmid
Hoffenheim : Baumann ; Coufal, Hranac, Kabak, Bernardo ; Promel, Avdullahu, Burger, Prass ; Lemperle, Asllani
Football Prediction Werder Bremen vs Hoffenheim
Hoffenheim to win
Bremen will lean on the crowd, but current momentum favours the visitors. Steadier, tougher and still chasing the Champions League places, Ilzer’s side look set to take three points from the Weserstadion — even if it’s not going to be comfortable.
First, a word on our tips
- What we publish on Mathodds is analysis, nothing more. We give an opinion — a snapshot of the moment — not a promise. Sport is unpredictable. A red card, an injury, a freak goal and the script flips.
- Let’s be clear: there’s no such thing as a risk‑free bet. Even when it looks “obvious”, it rarely is. Yes, you can lose. You will, at some point.
- Best plan: be sensible. Stake small, set a budget and stick to it. Don’t touch money you need to live on. And don’t chase losses — that never ends well.
- Betting should stay a game, not a job or a source of income. If it’s taking over your life, take a break. If needed, speak to a specialist — that’s what they’re there for.
- In the end, responsibility lies with you. Reading our content means you accept the risk stays real, even with the best analysis.
- Key reminder: betting is forbidden for minors and must follow your country’s laws. Gambling can spiral (losses, family tension, addiction). Need Help? Call 1-800-GAMBLER. In the UK? Visit https://www.gambleaware.org/https://www.gambleaware.org/.
