The Bundesliga tie at RheinEnergieStadion on Saturday sees home team FC Köln up against Werder Bremen.

With both FC Köln and Werder Bremen coming off disappointing defeats in their previous outing, we could be in for a cautious battle. Both will be eager to get back to winning ways sooner rather than later.

FC Köln and Werder Bremen settled for a point in a 1-1 draw, when last faced with each other. The best betting odds on a another draw at full-time with the bookies are at 11/4.

FC Köln vs Werder Bremen Prediction

FC Köln Form

FC Köln have had to endure a tough spell in their last three matches, from which they have nothing to show. They were beaten 2-0 by Freiburg, before Bayer Leverkusen ran out 1-2 winners. A third defeat on the trot followed against Hertha Berlin, who came out 2-0 winners. FC Köln only pulled off two wins from a possible six in recent Tyskland Bundesliga matches on home soil. Of the remaining four matches, they drew two and lost two, as they scored eight and conceded eight goals.

Werder Bremen Form

Werder Bremen have been a bit bleak in their last three matches, although it started with a 2-1 win against Schalke 04. Unable to follow that up, they went down 6-1 against Bayern München, before handing over all three points in a 1-2 defeat against RB Leipzig. Werder Bremen managed a decent return of three wins in their last six Tyskland Bundesliga away matches, in which they scored nine while also conceding 12 times. They also experienced one draw and two defeats.

FC Köln and Werder Bremen both came away with a point in their two meetings, which both fizzled out in a tight 1-1 draw. With such a good reading on each other, the draw could easily come into question again this coming Saturday.

FC Köln have a record of four wins, five draws and six defeats in the Tyskland Bundesliga this season. Werder Bremen are looking at six wins, three draws and six defeats in the Tyskland Bundesliga.
