The Bundesliga is back in action with another round of matches this weekend as Werder Bremen take on an impressive Borussia Dortmund side in an important encounter at the Signal Iduna Park on Saturday. Both teams have been inconsistent this season and will want to win this game.
Borussia Dortmund vs Werder Bremen Preview
Werder Bremen are currently in ninth place in the Bundesliga standings and have not been at their best so far this season. The away side slumped to a 2-0 defeat at the hands of FC Augsburg last week and will need to bounce back in this match.
Borussia Dortmund, on the other hand, are in 10th place in the league table at the moment and have failed to meet expectations this season. The Ruhr Valley hosts suffered a 2-1 defeat against Bologna in the UEFA Champions League in their previous game and have a point to prove this weekend.
