Our prediction for this Bundesliga match:
Weserstadion will be the centre of attention when Werder Bremen and Bayern Munich lock horns in a highly-anticipated Bundesliga game. Die Werderaner aim to build on a 2-1 win over Mainz, but they will have a mountain to climb against the high-flying Bavarians. Defender Marco Friedl is banned for the match, while Justin Njinmah has joined Oliver Burke and Milos Veljkovic in the recovery room.
The Bavarians, on the other hand, are determined to regain the trophy and given their excellent performance in a 6-1 crushing of Holstein Kiel, we do not believe that the hosts are capable of grabbing something from the match. You should know that Bayern Munich have defeated Werder Bremen in each and every meeting between the two sides at Weserstadion since January 2010. The opposition back-line should have Harry Kane at bay as the former Tottenham forward scored a hat-trick at the weekend. Vincent Kompany has no fresh injury worries ahead of the trip to Bremen.
Highlighted Player (Harry Kane):
Widely regarded as one of England’s best strikers at the moment, Harry Kane enjoyed a meteoric rise at Tottenham Hotspur, scoring 21 Premier League goals during the 2014/2015 campaign to be voted PFA Young Player of the Year.
The highly rated striker went on to surpass that achievement the following season as he helped Tottenham Hotspur mount a serious title challenge for the first time in club’s recent history and he made seamless transition to international football. Kane scored four goals in his first ten appearances for England to prove he was here to stay and at the same time established himself as a first choice striker in Roy Hodgson’s squad ahead of the Euro 2016 finals.
Kane is a modern striker, who is extremely dangerous in the opposition box, but it was some outstanding goals from distance as well as link-up play with teammates that earned him an excellent reputation in world football. Kane is expected to lead both Tottenham and England in years to come, that is if he can resist the lure of top European clubs that continue to cast admiring glances his way.
Highlighted Team (Werder Bremen):
Werder Bremen is a German football club from the German city Bremen which holds different divisions next to football. Werder Bremen is playing in the Bundesliga since the start of it.
