SV Werder Bremen vs Hoffenheim Prediction: Bremen will win

The final round 26 match is between Werder Bremen and Hoffenheim at the Weserstadion. Werder Bremen will be aiming to break their 3 match winless run in this match. Hoffenheim won their last match after a horrible run of 11 games without a win. With the break now over, it would be interesting to see who gets the first win. 3 points is vital for both sides, even more for Hoffenheim, who are on the brink of falling into the relegation zone. Bremen are in mid-table at the moment, but they can push higher with a win here.

The hosts were first to draw blood through Marcus Thuram in the 48th minute, before Marvin Ducksch equalised for Bremen in the 65th minute. Florian Neuhaus gave M'gladbach the lead once more in the 73rd minute and once again Bremen equalised in the 89th minute, as Marvin Ducksch grabbed his second.
