Our Werder Bremen – Bochum tip for the Bundesliga match on February 25th, 2023 is: There is not much to gain against top teams for Bremen this season. Upcoming opponent Bochum is not only in danger of relegation, but is also one of Werder’s favorite opponents.
Werder Bremen is still well in the race this season when it comes to staying up in the league. In the last two games against the Champions League round of 16 Dortmund and Frankfurt, however, the promoted team had no chance and conceded a 0-2 defeat in each case. Especially on Saturday at Eintracht, the green-whites were very harmless in the game going forward and for the first time since April 2019 in the Bundesliga they did not have a shot at the opposing goal. So that the cushion in the danger zone remains reasonably comfortable, coach Ole Werner’s men now have to step up their game again. The home game against VfL Bochum on Saturday could come at exactly the right time. We also trust the hosts to have a threesome and play with odds of 1.98 at NEObet the “home win” bet.
That’s why we’re predicting a “home win” for Werder Bremen vs Bochum:
- Werder is one of the strongest header teams in the Bundesliga. Bochum, on the other hand, are one of the weakest teams
- Bochum is the worst away team in the league
- VfL only won one of 33 guest appearances at SVW

Werder Bremen vs Bochum Odds Analysis:
SV Werder is 11th in the table with 27 points. This means that the promoted team has five places and an eight-point lead over their upcoming opponents.
The hosts are also sent onto the lawn as favorites by the bookmakers in the Werder Bremen vs Bochum forecast with average odds of 2.05. On the other hand, the guests with average odds of 3.56 are not without a chance from the bookies’ point of view.
Werder Bremen vs Bochum prediction: Will Werder play with more courage and risk again?
In the first half of the season Werder could annoy Dortmund and Frankfurt a lot more. Bremen even won 3:2 against BVB and were only beaten by Eintracht 3:4. The promoted player is currently playing with little courage and willingness to take risks and thus has few chances to score. The SVW had a predominance of 56 percent ball possession or 54 percent won duels against the Hessians.
But in the game forward ideas, determination and confidence are missing. Coach Ole Werner also speaks of the lack of self-image in his team. With six defeats from the last eight league games, the green-whites, together with Hoffenheim, are also one of the weakest teams in the league. 221 shots fired are also among the worst values in the Bundesliga.
Bochum coach Thomas Letsch suffered his first defeat after five wins in his sixth Bundesliga home game with a 2-0 loss to Freiburg. The guests were superior in terms of play and ultimately more efficient. This means that VfL has already suffered 14 defeats this season. The club has thus set the negative record from the 1994/95 season at this point in time.
Nevertheless, the Ruhrverein got 16 of their 19 points at home and only three points abroad. The goal difference on the opponent’s pitch of 7:32 does not necessarily speak for the blue and white. Now that the home series is broken, the Bochum team want to start a new one. Best on Saturday in Bremen. However, the guests will have to do without captain Anthony Losilla, who saw a straight red against Sport-Club and is a very important anchor.

Bremen is one of Bochum’s feared opponents. Only against Bayern did VfL suffer more defeats (48) and goals conceded (182) than against Werder (42, 138). The Ruhr club was only able to win one of the last 18 Bundesliga duels against the Greens and Whites. This victory dates back to February 2008 and came about through a 2-1 win at the Weser Stadium. That was also the only away win for Bochum in 33 guest appearances at SVW.
Our Werder Bremen – Bochum tip: home win
Bochum is the weakest away team in the Bundesliga. In addition, VfL is one of Werder’s favorite opponents. This combination comes at exactly the right time for Bremen. Because the climber can only stay away from the table cellar with a threesome.
Our Werder Bremen Bochum tip is therefore: home win! NEObet has odds of 1.98 for this bet.
