Werder Bremen vs Koln Prediction and Betting Tips | September 23rd 2023

Werder Bremen will host Koln at the Weserstadion on Saturday in another round of the 2023-24 Bundesliga campaign.

The home side have struggled for results in the Bundesliga this season and currently find themselves in the bottom half of the table. They were beaten 4-2 by newly-promoted Heidenheim in their last game, coming back from a two-goal deficit to draw level before conceding a further two goals midway through the half to hand the league's new boys their first-ever Bundesliga victory.

Koln have endured an even more difficult league campaign than their weekend opponents so far this season. They were beaten 3-1 by Hoffenheim in their last game, finding themselves three goals down before Davie Selke scored a second-half consolation goal.

The visitors sit 16th in the Bundesliga standings with just one point picked up so far. They will be looking to shake off their latest results and kick-start their season this weekend.
