Stuttgart vs Werder Bremen prediction
Stuttgart come into this one on the back of moving into the final of the DFB-Pokal as they seek to defend their trophy with a 2-1 defeat of Freiburg after extra-time, with Tiago Tomas scoring a 119th minute winner. Sebastian Hoeness’ hosts are an excellent and entertaining side to watch that sit tucked inside the top four in the Bundesliga.
They now face a Werder Bremen side that begin the match day sitting just five points and one place above third-from-bottom St Pauli, in the relegation playoff place. Werder most recently earned themselves a much-needed and comfortable 3-1 defeat of Hamburg last week with a Jens Stage brace as well as a Cameron Puertas strike.
Werder head to Stuttgart on the back of a much-needed victory and that confidence should see them land a punch or two but, even with their cup distractions, a Stuttgart win remains the likelier outcome.
