Weserstadion
On Sunday, March 12, Werder will face Bayer Leverkusen at the Weserstadion in the Bundesliga. Recent league struggles have caused the hosts to fall to the bottom part of the rankings. In their most recent contest, Werder fell to Augsburg. They may believe they deserved more from the contest but were guilty of squandering opportunities to score, especially in the first period. Bremen has thirty points after twenty-three games, which puts them in 11th place in the league.
Leverkusen, however, has recently had inconsistent league performances but continues to hold out hope of earning a spot in Europe. Four different players scored in the victory against Hertha Berlin last weekend, and on Thursday, they defeated Ferencvaros in the UEFA Europa League quarterfinals. With thirty-one points, the visitors are in ninth position, middle of the table.
The defensive struggles of both teams make BTTS the best bet.

Werder Bremen jumped right into their Bundesliga season after being promoted from the second division last year, going on a run of two losses in their first nine league games. Since then, the host lost nine times in as many Bundesliga games, dropping to the bottom of the rankings during a troubling stretch of six losses. However, despite the amazing start to the season, Werder Bremen are still 11 points ahead of the bottom half of the table.
Werder Bremen has only been successful in winning four of their past fourteen league contests, but they have won three of their last six games, defeating Wolfsburg and Stuttgart twice in a row before defeating VfL Bochum. The River Islanders will be hoping to put on another commanding performance at home after narrowly losing to Augsburg in their previous match despite having more possession.
Bayer Leverkusen
After defeating Ferencvaros on Thursday, Bayer Leverkusen increased their undefeated streak across all competitions to four games, giving them a strong chance to advance to the Europa League quarterfinals. After an outstanding draw against Champions League-contending Freiburg, that victory came on the heels of last weekend's thumping of relegation-threatened Hertha Berlin.
In spite of Leverkusen's recent improvement, it's important to keep in mind that former Real Madrid midfielder’s team has dropped three of their last six Bundesliga games, losing to Borussia Dortmund, Augsburg, and Mainz 05 recently. The visitors have only managed five clean sheets in their twenty-three league games this season, and they have failed to retain a scoreless record in each of their previous six Bundesliga matches.

In addition to losing seven of their previous 10 matches overall, Bremen has dropped three of their previous four league games. Yet in their previous three home games, they have won two of them. Leverkusen, however, has won their past two games straight and has gone unbeaten in their previous four matches overall. The visitor will prevail since they are considerably stronger than their competitors. A scoreline of 1-2, 1-3, or 1-4 is to be expected
