Our Prediction for Werder vs Union Berlin
The club from Bremen finally reminded everyone of its ambitions last season, fighting for European competition spots. However, they eventually finished eighth with 51 points, narrowly behind Mainz, who took sixth place. After that, Werner left his coaching position. Under his successor, Steffen, the results have been much more modest. He started with a 0-1 loss in the cup to humble Arminia, and in the championship, they lost half of their matches. On the other hand, they did start picking up wins in the autumn. In the previous round, they drew 2-2 with Heidenheim.
The capital side saw a sharp decline after peaking with a Champions League appearance two seasons ago. The 2024/2025 campaign also ended with a thirteenth-place finish, although they managed to collect 40 points. Currently, they are still earning points regularly, and even have some wins – including a 2-1 start against Stuttgart. After the international break, they achieved an important 3-1 victory over Borussia Mönchengladbach.
Mbangula and his teammates score an average of 1.57 goals per match but concede 2.29 in return. Baumgart's side also averages 1.57 goals scored, but concedes 2.0 per match.
