Borussia Dortmund are coming off a 2-0 win over Union Berlin in the Bundesliga, but consistent winning form has been difficult to find lately.
Will our algorithm predict a Borussia Dortmund win against Werder Bremen in round No. 25?
The Yellow and Black will travel to Bremen looking for a second straight league victory. The club failed to put together back-to-back wins in their last six fixtures.

Despite some inconsistencies, Dortmund are fourth in the league standings.
RB Leipzig are just one point off of Borussia Dortmund in the standings. A loss for Dortmund would open the door for Leipzig to move ahead of them.
Werder Bremen are eighth in the standings and having a strong season by the standards of their recent top-flight campaigns. However, the Green and Whites are winless in their last two matches, taking one point from six.
A 1-1 draw with Darmstadt was followed by a 2-1 away loss to Hoffenheim. Eighteen of Bremen’s 30 points have come at home this season, which makes them a difficult opponent for Dortmund this weekend.
Werder Bremen won just one of their last six matches in all competitions versus Dortmund. Borussia Dortmund won their last two head-to-head matches with Werder Bremen, keeping clean sheets in both fixtures.
Earlier this season, the Yellow and Blacks squeaked out a 1-0 win at Signal Iduna Park. Julian Brandt’s 67th-minute goal was enough for the win.
Borussia Dortmund have played well on the road, taking 21 points from 12 games. They outscored their opponents on the road 24-12.
Niclas Fullkrug was scoring goals for Werder Bremen last season, but this campaign, he is scoring goals for Dortmund. Fullkrug leads the team’s goal scoring stats with 11.
The striker scored twice and assisted one goal in his last three Bundesliga appearances.
Fullkrug also leads Borussia Dortmund in assists with eight. He has contributed to 19 of Dortmund’s 48 goals.
Bremen’s Marvin Ducksch leads the team in goals with nine. The Green and Whites have scored just 33 times this season. They have a -4-goal difference. However, playing at home, Bremen’s goal difference is +2.
Edin Terzic will be without striker Sebastien Haller due to an ankle injury. Goalkeeper Gregor Kobel is also set to miss out following a groin injury.
Werder Bremen play well at home, but like their last two matches versus Dortmund, Saturday’s game should end in a defeat. Our algorithm predicts a score of 2-1 in favour of Borussia Dortmund as they win again on the road.
