The host has almost three times more points on their account and they are in the leading position, while Werder is in the relegation zone and it is clear that these rivals have nothing in common. If we count all competitions, Bayern has seven wins in a series, out of which five are in the championship, and Werder did not celebrate in the previous three rounds. The team from Bremen is more successful in the Cup and they have reached the quarterfinals in which there are also the Bavarians. Bayern has, harder than expected, celebrated with 2-0 in the first half of the season in Bremen, but they were relentless to Werder in Munich last season.
Bayern did not relax during the winter break due to the great difference in score compared to the closest team, so they in the first round of the second part celebrated in Leverkusen over Bayer, which usually causes the problems in their field. This time, Bayern managed to score three goals, and when it is so, then the usually win. It was just a continuation of the great series that began in late November and since their defeat by Borussia M'gladbach, they no longer made the wrong move.
There were some goals, as it happened in Leverkusen, but without any serious consequences. Coach Heynckes constantly rotates the starting lineup, however, the game remains equally good and even though they were without Lewandowsky they have still celebrated in the last round, while Neuer and Alcantare are also absent for some time. Now Lewandowski returns to the team as well as Kimmich on the right side, while there may be more changes.
Probable lineups Bayern Munich: Ulreich – Kimmich, Boateng, Hummels, Alaba – J.Martinez – Robben, T,Muller, J.Rodriguez, Ribery – Lewandowski
Even though they are without a win in the previous three rounds, it can be said that Werder still plays better than at the beginning of the season. One defeat and two draws are the effect in the previous three rounds after having twice celebrated before that and that is why the statement that they are better is true, and it is a bad thing that they played both draws in their field, one against the direct competitor Mainz. They had a win in their hands and then they scored a goal for 1-1 in the last few seconds.
The same result was in the previous round against Hoffenheis, but they were losing in that duel. Between two draws they entered the win in the Cup against Freiburg, so Werder will play the quarter-finals, which is a nice achievement. When it comes to the composition, Junuzovic and M. Krusev have expectedly returned in the previous round, and it should be said that Gondorf was excellent after joining the bench. That does not mean that they will immediately be the starters, but the recovered Delaney could be on the field, while Bartelsa is still absent due to injury.
Probable lineups Werder Bremen: Pavlenka – Gebre Selassie, Moisander, Veljkovic, Augustinsson – Bargfrede – M.Eggestein, Junuzović, Delaney – Belfodil, M.Kruse
All but Bayern’s safe victory for would be a huge sensation and the question is just how much resistance can Werder provide. According to what they show, they will not be able to do much, but even if they do not achieve a goal, it is possible that there will be a lot of goals in this match.
Pick: over 3.5 goals 1.9
