Wolfsburg to Win
Wolfsburg have made a searingly-hot start to the campaign’s second half in Germany and alongside winning each of their first two matches back in the saddle, Die Wolfe managed to rattle the net a staggering 11 times without reply. Werder Bremen meanwhile, slipped to defeats in each of their two assignments during the same period and they could be worth opposing again here. Wolfsburg have serious momentum behind them and our first prediction tips them to leave the wohninvest WESERSTADION with maximum points on Saturday.
Over 1.5 Wolfsburg Goals
Wolfsburg have looked razor-sharp in the final third over the past couple of weeks as evidenced by their tremendous 11-goal haul in just 180 minutes of Bundesliga action since the break. Wolfsburg smashed Freiburg 5-0 at home before putting another six goals past Hertha Berlin on the road, and with players like Danish attacker Jonas Wind in devastating form, it could be worth backing the visitors to net over 1.5 times again this weekend.
