Two of the Bundesliga's early-season surprises meet at the Weserstadion, with a free-scoring Augsburg heading to Bremen for a fixture that has the makings of a lively afternoon. Our Werder Bremen vs Augsburg prediction leans towards goals.
Werder Bremen have found joy from the corner flag, scoring three goals from set-pieces across their opening three Bundesliga games, already bettering their corner-goal tally from the whole of last season.
Augsburg arrive full of confidence, having banked nine goals in their first three matches of the campaign, the club's highest-ever goal tally at that stage of a Bundesliga season.
The head-to-head is dead level, with two home wins, two draws and two away wins across the last six meetings between these sides, so there is little to separate them on recent history.
Werder Bremen vs Augsburg Form
Werder Bremen sit tenth after picking up four points from their opening three games, recovering from a 4-1 away defeat to draw at FC Köln. The worry is at the back, with six conceded and no clean sheet yet. Niclas Füllkrug remains their main attacking threat up top.
Augsburg are the story so far, sitting fourth having collected seven points and stayed unbeaten across their opening three fixtures. They are undefeated in nine of their last ten Bundesliga matches and have scored at least two goals in five of their last six. Michael Gregoritsch is firing.

Werder Bremen vs Augsburg Prediction & Best Bets
Our prediction: This one points towards goals at both ends. Werder Bremen are marginal favourites at home and are backed to edge it, but Augsburg's firepower makes a shootout look on. We fancy a narrow 1-2 to the visitors given their form, though it is close. Werder Bremen are 132/100 with 10Bet, with Augsburg 9/5 with Bet365.
Best Bets
Ludovit Reis to have over 0.5 shots on target in the Player Shots On Target market. The Werder Bremen midfielder gets forward from the engine room and carries a near 50% projected probability of testing the keeper, which lands as strong value against the market price.
Robin Fellhauer to record over 1.5 shots in the Player Shots market. Augsburg average over 16 shots a game and love to fire on sight, and the attacking midfielder holds a healthy probability of getting two or more efforts away, making this a tidy value angle.
Werder Bremen vs Augsburg Bet Builder
Our four-leg bet builder for this fixture leans into the goals and shooting theme: Niclas Füllkrug over 2.5 shots, over 12.5 total corners, over 1.5 Augsburg goals and Füllkrug to score anytime.
Füllkrug loves this fixture, having attempted 3+ shots in seven of his last seven appearances against Augsburg in the Bundesliga, so backing him to clear 2.5 shots looks sensible.
Corners look a strong angle too, with the over 12.5 line landing in three of the last three Augsburg matches on the back of sustained attacking pressure.
The over 1.5 Augsburg goals leg fits their form nicely, given the visitors have scored at least two goals in five of their last six Bundesliga matches.
Rounding it off, Füllkrug to score anytime makes plenty of sense, with the striker having found the net in two of his last three Bundesliga outings.
At the time of writing, this bet builder pays a best price of 18/1 and is as short as 17/1 elsewhere.

Werder Bremen vs Augsburg Talking Points
Werder Bremen head coach Daniel Thioune has flagged that Augsburg will likely be happy to sit off and hand the hosts the ball at the Weserstadion, so how Werder use that possession will shape the afternoon. The visitors are a serious threat on the counter, and in Michael Gregoritsch, now their all-time top Bundesliga goalscorer, they have a finisher in red-hot form. With Werder's defence yet to keep a clean sheet, the goals could flow at both ends.
