Werder Bremen vs RB Leipzig Betting Tips: Latest odds, team news, preview and predictions

Werder Bremen welcome RB Leipzig to north-west Germany on the final day of the Bundesliga season.

Saturday's hosts have no chance of qualifying for European competition but Florian Kohfeldt's side will come into this match with plenty of belief following an impressive 1-0 win against Hoffenheim last weekend.

Leipzig, meanwhile, have suffered only one defeat since the turn of the year and Ralf Rangnick's men held Bayern Munich to a goalless draw last weekend. 

Latest odds

SportPesa offer 33/20 (2.65) that Werder Bremen sign off the season in style with a win against the Champions League qualifiers.

The visitors are available at 29/20 (2.45) to round off their Bundesliga campaign with victory. SportPesa go 14/5 (3.80) that Saturday's match ends all square.

Team news

Veteran striker Claudio Pizarro - who has enjoyed four spells with Werder Bremen during his career - may feature for the club for the final time. The 40-year-old Peruvian is the oldest man to have found the net in Bundesliga history.

Rangnick may be tempted to rest a few regulars ahead of his side's appearance in next weekend's German Cup final against Bayern Munich.

Goals galore

Leipzig have scored 12 goals in their last four fixtures away from home but have also conceded in each of those matches. SportPesa offer just 20/51 (1.39) that there are goals at both ends on Saturday afternoon.

The same firm go 20/49 (1.41) that there are at least three goals scored when these two teams lock horns. Furthermore, Kohfeldt's men have managed just two clean sheets in their last 14 fixtures.

RB Leipzig are available at 5/7 (1.71) to score more than once this weekend and it is 33/20 (2.65) that Rangnick's charges find the net in both halves.

There have been at least four goals scored in six of Werder Bremen's last eight home matches in all competitions, though, and SportPesa offer a tempting 21/20 (2.05) that there are more than three goals scored on Saturday afternoon.

Prediction

There would appear to be plenty of potential for goals to flow freely this weekend. SportPesa's 21/20 (2.05) quote that there are at least four goals scored certainly carries considerable appeal.

It is a play that would have landed in four of Bremen's last five home matches. The selection also would have paid dividends in three of Leipzig's last four away fixtures.
