Stats for this game
Matchup Werder Bremen VS FC Augsburg
Werder’s stronger platform
Werder have often carried the broader historical advantage into this fixture, and the 3–2 home win in September 2019 showed why. Yuya Osako scored twice and Josh Sargent added the decisive goal, but Augsburg twice equalised through Ruben Vargas to keep Bremen under pressure. The result points to Werder’s ability to find a winning margin without suggesting that control will come easily against this opponent.
Augsburg’s answer keeps returning
Augsburg’s challenge is more than a single upset. In March 2023, Dion Beljo and Arne Maier secured a 2–1 home win after Jens Stage had put Werder ahead. Werder then answered in April 2024 with a 3–0 victory in Augsburg, scoring through Romano Schmid, Marvin Ducksch and Olivier Deman. That exchange captures the fixture’s useful tension: Werder can reassert the hierarchy, but Augsburg have the tools to make the next meeting uncomfortable. The lasting question is who handles the response after the first goal.
