Big day at the Weser: Bremen seeks stability, Stuttgart arrives buzzing
The Wohninvest Weserstadion will host an intriguing Bundesliga clash on 14/12/2025 as Werder Bremen welcome VfB Stuttgart in Round 14. Bremen sit 11th with a mixed set of results — four wins, four draws and five defeats from 13 matches — and a goal difference that underlines some defensive leaky moments (18 scored, 24 conceded). Their recent league curtain came down in a 3-2 defeat away to Hamburger SV, a game where Romano Schmid produced the bright spot and earned the best player rating. Stuttgart, meanwhile, occupy sixth and arrive with more momentum in the pocket: seven wins, one draw and five losses, 21 goals scored and 22 conceded across 13 outings. Their most recent performance was emphatic — a 4-1 Europa League win where Maximilian Mittelstädt shone — and confidence from European action could spill over into Bundesliga form.
Form and match rhythm — what numbers tell us
Stuttgart edges Bremen in overall attacking metrics: more total shots (199 to 164), higher shots on target (67 to 60) and a superior average of dangerous attacks (60.08 versus 41.62). That attacking edge is reflected in their over-2.5 frequency: Stuttgart have seen 76.92% of matches surpass that line, while Bremen register 61.54%. Both sides are capable of finding the net, and recent scorelines suggest open moments at both ends of the pitch. Bremen’s home form is a factor — the Weserstadion can energize them — yet Bremen have conceded 24 goals so far, revealing vulnerability against teams that press and create chances.
Bookmakers favour the visitors: VfB Stuttgart are priced around 2.26 in the match-winner market, with Bremen listed at 2.88 and the draw at 3.70. That market pricing aligns with Stuttgart’s sharper attacking numbers and steadier recent form. The last league meeting earlier this year finished 2-1 to Stuttgart, another reminder that they know how to get results against Bremen.
