Werder Bremen - Hannover 96 01.02.2013 19:30
In the last two seasons of the Bundesliga Hannover finishes a few places ahead to Werder Bremen in the standings. This year, for the moment, Hanover again leads with 4 points to Werder and has a real opportunity to qualify for the European tournaments. This match will largely decide which of these two teams will have the opportunity to make a final push to get in the first six places in the table. This home match for Werder is a great opportunity for the team to gain some valuable points and to settle in the first half of the table.
The hosts certainly are not in a good shape and the results they show do not meet the potential of the team. The main problems of Werder are related to their defense. The team concedes a lot of goals and if in the start of the season the team was a challenge even for the leaders of the Bundesliga, now Werder is literally being crushed by them. In its latest home game the team suffered a huge defeat by Borussia Dortmund with 0:5. Werder managed to win only once in their last six league games and will no doubt try to gain the three points in this game and regain some confidence.
We can say a lot of good things reagarding Hannover`s performance this season. The team maintains a relatively high level of play and undoubtedly is an inconvenient opponent for any team in the Bundesliga. The last match of Hanover as a guest was a real spectacle - Schalke 04 - Hannover: 5-4. Hanover's players show spirit and confidence in their game and often times manage to come back in a match from losing position. Hanover`s main striker, Mame Biram Diouf is in great shape as he is currently the team's top scorer with 11 goals. Definitely, Werder players should pay special attention to this dangerous forward.
Despite the poor form of Werder Bremen and the good performance of Hanover, the bookmakers mark the host as the favorite in this match. Werder Bremen cannot afford to lose and for their win the bookies offer considerably attractive odds of around 2.00
