Team Overview
Werder Bremen are one of the Bundesliga's most traditional clubs, a green-and-white institution from the northern port city of Bremen with a loyal following and a place in the league's founding story. The club has won the Bundesliga title four times, and it has long been regarded as a side that belongs in the upper half of the table, even if its position has varied across the decades. Daniel Thioune is the current manager.
You can find a more detailed breakdown in our detailed analysis here.
The current campaign has been competitive but hard to separate from the pack. After six Bundesliga matches, Bremen have two wins, three draws and one defeat, a record that reflects a side that is difficult to beat but has not yet turned that resilience into regular victories. The goal difference is exactly level, with 12 scored and 12 conceded, so the team has averaged two goals for and two against per match. Bremen have also scored in every game so far, with no

Injuries & Availability
Impact Analysis
Werder Bremen have eight players confirmed unavailable, with no one listed as doubtful. That leaves little uncertainty, since the squad can plan around a fixed group of absentees. The list includes F. Agu, K. Topp, J. Njinmah, J. Stage, S. Lynen, M. N'Diaye, S. Alvero and S. Musah.
The injury types show a clear pattern. Calf problems affect both Agu and Alvero, and Stage and Musah are out with muscle injuries. Njinmah (thigh) and N'Diaye (groin) add to a group of mostly muscular complaints, while Topp (knee) and Lynen (hip) complete the list. The data does not assign positions, so it is not possible to say which area of the pitch is hit hardest. The sheer number of absentees, though, means the burden is spread across the squad rather than concentrated in a single player.
Losing eight players at once tests any squad's depth, and it limits rotation options and the quality of the bench. The data does not say how capable the available replacements are, so that question stays open. Even so, a count of eight confirmed absences is a substantial challenge for Bremen's squad depth.

Form Analysis
Werder Bremen's last five matches show an inconsistent side that rarely loses but struggles to close out games. The record of one win, three draws and one defeat looks steady on paper, but the goal difference of 8 scored and 14 conceded says otherwise. That figure is heavily skewed by the 7-0 away loss to Twente, which accounts for half of the goals conceded.
Going forward has not been the main problem. Bremen scored in four of the five matches, including a 3-2 home win over FC Augsburg and 2-2 draws with Borussia Dortmund away and SC Paderborn 07 at home. The shutout at Twente is the only game in which they failed to score.
Defensively, the picture is more worrying. Bremen conceded in every match and kept no clean sheet, giving up two goals in each of four of the five games. That has turned several matches into shootouts and cost them points, notably the draws with Dortmund and Paderborn.
Venue also matters. At home they took a win and a draw, scoring five and conceding four. Away from home they drew at 1. FC Köln and Dortmund but were beaten heavily at Twente, conceding ten goals in
