Stadium: Signal Iduna Park (Dortmund)
25.01.2025 17:30
A riveting encounter awaits as Borussia Dortmund hosts SV Werder Bremen in a crucial Bundesliga showdown scheduled to take place on 25th January 2025 at 20:30 (GMT+3). Both teams are in desperate need of points, albeit for vastly different reasons.
Dortmund, struggling to find consistency, will look to reignite their season and climb back into contention after a string of poor performances. Conversely, Bremen, embroiled in the lower half of the table, is battling to avoid slipping further into the relegation zone. Matches between these two sides rarely disappoint, as history reveals a thrilling pattern of high-scoring affairs, dramatic comebacks, and tightly fought contests.
Dortmund holds a commanding head-to-head record, having triumphed 26 times in their last 47 meetings, but Bremen has proven capable of pulling off surprises. Signal Iduna Park, a fortress for Dortmund, adds to the intrigue as the Yellow Wall cheers on their team in what promises to be an electric atmosphere. Both sides come into this clash after underwhelming results, and a victory here could shape their respective campaigns. Will Dortmund bounce back or will Bremen seize the moment to strike?

Borussia Dortmund finds itself in unfamiliar territory, with recent form casting doubt on their title ambitions. A run of four defeats in their last five matches, including a shocking 2-3 loss to Bayer Leverkusen, has left fans frustrated and players under immense scrutiny. Known for their attacking brilliance, Dortmund has struggled defensively, conceding 13 goals in their last five outings. Yet, hope lies in their ability to perform at Signal Iduna Park, where they’ve historically dominated Bremen. Players like Donyell Malen and Julian Brandt must rediscover their spark to turn things around. With the home crowd behind them, Dortmund will seek to exploit Bremen’s defensive vulnerabilities. Failure to secure three points could deepen their crisis and derail their Bundesliga aspirations.
SV Werder Bremen
SV Werder Bremen’s season has been a rollercoaster, marked by occasional flashes of brilliance overshadowed by defensive lapses. They’ve managed just one win in their last five league matches, drawing against Heidenheim in a chaotic 3-3 thriller and losing 0-2 to Augsburg in their most recent outing. Bremen’s struggles on the road have compounded their problems, and their defensive frailties, evidenced by 14 goals conceded in their last five matches, leave them vulnerable against Dortmund’s firepower. Still, Niclas Füllkrug and Marvin Ducksch could pose a threat on the counter if given space. Bremen’s history of upsetting Dortmund, including a famous 3-2 comeback in 2022, will inspire belief, but they must be clinical and resolute defensively to stand a chance.

Expert Betting Tips
This match has all the makings of a closely contested battle, but I see Borussia Dortmund edging it with a 2-1 victory. Despite their recent slump, Dortmund’s quality in attack and their ability to control games at Signal Iduna Park should shine through. Werder Bremen, though inconsistent, won’t go down without a fight.
Dortmund’s win probability is 60%, while Bremen’s chances are 20%, leaving a 20% likelihood of a draw. The probability of over 2.5 goals stands at 65%, given both teams’ recent defensive struggles. Meanwhile, both teams to score (BTTS) is 60%, as Bremen has scored in all but one of their last five matches, and Dortmund’s defensive form is shaky. Dortmund’s home advantage and attacking quality should prove decisive, but Bremen’s counterattacking threat makes this a game to watch until the final whistle.
Below are my predictions for the game:
My first prediction is over 2.5 goals for odds of 1.62 at Betway
My second prediction is BTTS for odds of 1.62 at Bet365
My final prediction is over 9.5 corners for odds of 1.96 at 1XBet
