Our prediction for this Bundesliga 2 match:
Weserstadion will host Saturday’s football game between Werder Bremen and Hannover, the two old rivals. Die Werderaner surprisingly suffered relegation to the German second tier last term, and, no doubt, they are eyeing a quick return to the German top flight. Milot Rashica is no longer part of the team, while new signing Anthony Jung is likely to make his 2. Bundesliga debut against Hannover.
Die Rotten, on the other hand, finished the last 2. Bundesliga campaign in 13th place in the standings. Hannover are tough to beat at home, but seeing that they often struggle on the travels, we believe that punters can find value in betting on die Werderaner. In their last encounter in a competitive match Werder Bremen recorded a routine 3-0 win over Hannover, which is yet another reason why home win should be considered.
