Borussia Dortmund vs Werder Bremen Prediction

Borussia Dortmund host Werder Bremen on 9 October 2026 at 21:30 in the Bundesliga. Dortmund arrive on a six-game winning run across all competitions, most recently beating Stuttgart 1-0 before the international break. Manager Niko Kovac has depth to work with despite absences: Nico Schlotterbeck picked up an injury on international duty, while Justin Lerma and Giannis Konstantelias remain sidelined. Werder come off a 3-2 victory over Augsburg but suffered a 7-0 friendly defeat to Twente over the weekend, a result that signals defensive fragility heading into this fixture.

Form and H2H

Dortmund have won 60% of their last 10 home matches, averaging 2.20 goals per game at Signal Iduna Park. The Bundesliga confirms Dortmund are unbeaten in their last seven meetings with Werder. Werder have conceded 1.60 goals per game across their last 10 matches, and 70% of those games saw both teams score. Niclas Fullkrug, a returnee for Werder, has scored in each of his last three Bundesliga appearances and has three goals this season, making him a threat despite his team's defensive issues.

Best Bet

Borussia Dortmund to Win is the main pick. Dortmund's form, home advantage, and Werder's defensive record make a home victory the most likely outcome. At 1xBet, a Dortmund win trades at 1.41. Over 2.5 goals is also worth backing given Dortmund's attacking output at home and Werder's leaky defence. The prediction is Borussia Dortmund 2 - 1 Werder Bremen.

Odds to Watch

Both Teams to Score carries appeal with Werder capable of scoring and Dortmund unlikely to keep a clean sheet. Mostbet prices Dortmund to Win at 1.38, while 1Win offers 1.35 for the same outcome. The draw at 1xBet sits at 5.7, a price that undervalues Dortmund's superiority in this matchup.
