Werder Bremen vs Bayern Munich Prediction and Preview – 17/10/15
Bundesliga preview – Werder Bremen vs Bayern Munich prediction
Werder Bremen have Alejandro Galvez accompanying Vestergaard in the centre of defence but have the option of Assani Lukimya. Philipp Bargfrede returns from his suspension to take his place in defensive midfield. With Aron Johannsson still unavailable through injury Fin Bartels could play further forward and partner Anthony Ujah.
Bayern Munich may make wholesale changes with the Champions League ties against Arsenal to come. Philipp Lahm and Thiago will partner Alonso in midfield with Vidal out. Should Juan Bernat or Kingsley Coman recover from knocks expect them to start otherwise Thomas Muller and Douglas Costa will play either side of Robert Lewandowski.

Prediction
Werder Bremen are 14th in the league and find themselves on a 4 game losing streak. They have suffered 2 home defeats and 2 away defeats finding the net only once against Darmstadt. Finding the net has been a problem and with Bayern Munich bringing two goal machines to Bremen their woes look certain to continue.
Bayern Munich sit top of the tree with a 7 point cushion over nearest rivals Dortmund, who where dispatched 5-1 in the last league fixture. Bayern have scored at least 3 goals in their last 6 games, including two 5-1’s and a 5-0. Muller and Lewandowski are in red hot form at the moment, both will be looking to add to their already impressive goal tallies in this game.
We hav gone for this to be a roaring win for Bayern, keeping up the trend of Bayern scoring at least 3 goals. Werder Bremen struggle to find the net against weaker opposition so expect them to strike out in front of goal here. Bayern to have their own way from start to finish.
