Bayern Munich on a high: Werder Bremen facing a tough test!

Football fans in Bremen can look forward to an exciting duel as SV Werder Bremen takes on FC Bayern Munich on Friday, September 26, 2025. The game in the Allianz Arena kicks off at 8:30 p.m. It will be a landmark game for the Hanseatic League, who are currently in 14th place in the Bundesliga. In advance, the signs are anything but rosy.

Bayern, on the other hand, are at the top of the table with 12 points from four games. They scored an impressive 18 goals and only conceded three. Munich's last encounter ended with a clear 4-1 win against 1899 Hoffenheim, proving their dominance this season. Bayern are still unbeaten in the Allianz Arena at home and have won their last three games there with a combined score of 14:1. In addition, striker Harry Kane, who has now scored eight goals this season, contributed a hat trick to the successful tally. Sport.de reports that Bayern have not even scored fewer than three goals in their last six games.

Werder with big challenges

For Werder Bremen, however, the situation doesn't look quite as rosy. Bremen have only got 4 points from their first four games, showing a vulnerable defense that, along with FC Augsburg, is the worst in the league with 10 goals conceded. The last game against SC Freiburg ended painfully with a 3-0 defeat. Coach Horst Steffen will do everything in his power to prepare his team optimally for this important game. Players Julian Malatini and possibly others will not be able to travel to Munich due to injuries. Sports Mole highlights that Bremen have always lost in their last seven meetings against Bayern, most recently with a 3-0 defeat in February of this year.

Bremen's line-up is also crucial to their success. According to the latest reports, they are expected to start with Backhaus in goal, Coulibaly and Friedl in defense and Stage and Lynen in midfield. Creative interaction could be the key to success if the offensive team around Schmid, Puertas, Njinmah and Grull appears in form.

Betting odds and expectations

The betting providers see Bayern as the clear favorites for the upcoming game and offer odds of 1.10 for a Munich victory. A draw is valued at 15.00, while a Werder win is represented in the odds at a whopping 26.00. Interestingly, the statistics point to a likely goal festival: Bayern's last six games have always seen more than 3.5 goals, while Werder's last four matches have often seen more than 2.5 goals. Sport.de has provided some betting tips that suggest a 3-0 home win.

This will undoubtedly be an exciting game in the Bundesliga, and the fans will be curious to see whether Werder Bremen can get a point or even a win against the superiority from Munich.
