An entertaining Bundesliga clash is on the cards at RheinEnergieStadion as Koln take on Werder Bremen on Matchday 3, with both sides arriving after eye-catching results. The Billy Goats suffered a 4-1 defeat to Stuttgart last time out but impressed in their first home game, beating Hoffenheim 3-2. Moore and Skhiri are pushing for starting berths, while Hubers, Sebulonsen and Waldschmidt remain sidelined. The hosts have seen BTTS land in all five of their last home games.
Werder Bremen, meanwhile, will be looking to build on a superb 3-1 victory over Leipzig and are likely to maintain their attacking approach. Returnee Niclas Fullkrug opened his goalscoring account at the weekend and will be the man to watch, while Eren Dikci is doubtful with an injury. Die Werderaner have won 75% of their last four away matches, scoring an impressive 3.50 goals per game.
Koln have seen both teams score in 90% of their last 10 matches and given Werder's signs of improvement up front, we are tempted to bet on Both Teams to Score, alongside Over 2.5 and Over 3.5 goals.
This Bundesliga match will be played on Saturday 12 September 2026 at 17:30.
