On Friday, starting with 19:30, the Wolfsburg – Bremen match will be played, within the 9th round of the Bundesliga. Bremen is undefeated in the last 4 trips with Wolfsburg, managing to score every time in these duels. Last season in the Bundesliga, the “wolves” defeated Bremen 1-0, but lost 2-3 at home.
Wolfsburg continues its period of invincibility in the Bundesliga, reaching 8 consecutive stages without failure, from the start of the season. The group coached by Oliver Glasner ticked 3 successes and 5 draws, has a goal average of 9-5, and the 14 points ticked place it on the 6th place in the ranking, 5 points away from the leader Bayern. At home, the “wolves” defeated Bielefeld and Hoffenheim 2-1, after drawing in the first two disputes, 0-0 with Leverkusen and Augsburg. The top scorer of the last seasons for Wolfsburg, Weghorst has 4 goals and a decisive pass this season, being again the most important player in Glasner’s attack.
Bremen does not deny and comes after 5 consecutive stages in which it drew with the same score, 1-1. The last feat was successful right on the field of the champion Bayern, score obtained after the goals of Eggestein (min. 45) and Coman (min. 62). The Bavarians dominated the hostilities, but the defense of the “white-greens” was at a very high level. Bremen has only one failure after 8 stages, a goal difference of 10-10 and the 11 points ensure a place in the first 9 Bundesliga teams. Florian Kohfeldt’s students are not the only ones with 5 seasonal equality results, Wolfsburg, Frankfurt and Stuttgart having an identical record from this point of view.
The history of direct duels shows us an atypical advantage for Bremen, who managed to score in 8 of the last 9 meetings with Wolfsburg. This trend will probably be maintained, and the “white-greens” will look for a positive result in the “wolves” arena.
