Bayern Munich:
Bayern Munich will be looking to extend their lead at the top of the Bundesliga when they face Werder Bremen on Friday. With 51 points, the Bavarians can temporarily increase their advantage over second-placed Bayer Leverkusen to nine points. Bayern have been in lethal form offensively, scoring 62 goals in just 20 league matches this season, and are on track to break a 60-year-old scoring record. Although their recent defensive performances have raised concerns, Bayern have won seven of their last eight games, including their past six Bundesliga matches. They thrashed Werder Bremen 5-0 earlier this season and will be confident of another dominant performance at home, where they’ve won 17 of their last 20 matches.
Werder Bremen:
Werder Bremen, currently in eighth place with 30 points, are aiming to keep their European hopes alive with a strong performance at Allianz Arena. Despite a narrow 1-0 win over Mainz last time out, their victory was marred by two red cards and manager Ole Werner’s own dismissal. Defensively, Werder Bremen have struggled, with 36 goals conceded—the worst record among teams in the top 14. Their recent form has been inconsistent, with just one win in their last five games. On the road, they’ve had mixed results, winning two of their last six away matches. The visitors will face a tough challenge against Bayern’s attacking firepower but will need to improve their defensive stability to stand any chance of a surprise result.
