Werder Bremen vs St. Pauli Prediction
Werder Bremen clearly haven’t given up on European football just yet and four straight victories is testament to that, bringing them up to eighth-place in the table with four games to play. St. Pauli though, are grinding out crucial points in their battle to avoid relegation, recently holding Bayer Leverkusen to a 1-1 draw at home.
Whatever the outcome here, the contest should be very tight and we are unlikely to see a large number of goals across the 90 minutes. Werder’s recent form cannot be ignored though, so a shrewd move may be to back them, but also under 2.5 goals.
