Werder Bremen welcome Augsburg to the Weserstadion on Saturday in matchday 32 of the 2025-26 Bundesliga campaign. For the hosts, a win this weekend would see them avoid automatic relegation and could go a long way towards confirming safety altogether, while maximum points for the visitors would keep their continental ambitions alive, however slim they may be.
Deputizing for the suspended Marco Friedl, team captain Jens Stage hit the 10-goal mark for a second consecutive league campaign, drilling home a fine effort to give Bremen the lead away at Stuttgart last time out.
Thanks for the submission!
However, Die Werderaner found themselves on the back foot from then on and ultimately had to settle for a point as the game ended 1-1.
Progress under new boss Daniel Thioune has been quite laboured, but Bremen will be keen to confirm safety this weekend, as their final two games of the campaign feature fixtures against sides still in contention for Champions League football (Hoffenheim and Borussia Dortmund).
The winter break massively benefited Augsburg, as Manuel Baum’s men tasted defeat in just two of their nine matches between January and February.
However, the Fuggerstädter have seen their momentum stall significantly since then, with their recent 1-1 draw against Eintracht Frankfurt leaving them with only an outside chance of clinching the sole Conference League qualification spot.
Werder Bremen vs Augsburg Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
- In the 31 meetings between Bremen and Augsburg, both sides have collected 13 wins apiece, while the remaining five contests have ended in draws.
- The points were shared in a goalless draw when these two teams met earlier this season.
- Bremen’s 3-1 win over Hamburger SV a fortnight ago marked only their second home win of the year.
- Only three teams have conceded more goals in the Bundesliga this season than Augsburg’s 55, two of which currently occupy the drop zone.
- The visitors have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last seven matches.
Werder Bremen vs Augsburg Prediction
For a third successive outing, Bremen will be unable to call on the services of captain Marco Friedl, with the centre-back recently suffering a groin injury. Augsburg, meanwhile, will be boosted by a clean bill of health, with in-form Finn Dahmen, who has made 15 saves in his last two games, set to retain his place in goal.
However, the Fuggerstädter have struggled on the road recently and could come unstuck here.
