Werder Bremen – Hertha BSC
Werder Bremen hosts Hertha BSC at the Weserstadion in a match from the first week of the Bundesliga. One of the best competitions in the world is starting again, so we can’t wait to see these teams in action.
Few days ago Werder Bremen played their first official game for the season and it was a positive experience. They visited Carl Zeiss Jena in a game from the first round of the DFB Pokal and enjoyed a pretty easy 2-0 win. Werder scored both of their goals after the halftime break. Joshua Sargent opened the score, while Tahith Chong made it 0-2.
Tahith Chong is probably the most interesting signing for Werder this summer. He’s a pure Dutch talent who was loaned to Werder by Manchester United. Let’s see if he can make a breakthrough season with his new team.
Florian Kohfeldt is starting his fourth season as a Werder Bremen manager. So far he’s doing his job and he’s keeping the team safe from relegation. That’s Werder’s main goal at the moment.
Hertha BSC didn’t start the 2020/21 season in the best way possible. The Old Lady said goodbye to the DFB Pokal after a dramatic 4-5 defeat from the hands of Eintracht Braunschweig. It was dissapointing for the fans to see such a result, especially against a non-Bundesliga opponent.
It’s still strange that Hertha scored four goals in this game and they still got eliminated. Dodi Lukebakio scored a brace for the Old Lady, while Pekarik and Matheus Cunha scored as well. But how we said it – it was simply not enough for the visitors.
We have a feeling that Werder Bremen and Hertha BSC will offer us a good game on Saturday. The away team didn’t start the new season in the best way possible, but maybe now they will have a chance to do better. Let’s see.
