Preview

Match preview

Werder Bremen host high-flying FC Augsburg in round 4 of the Bundesliga season. The visitors have enjoyed an impressive start to the campaign, collecting seven points from their opening three league fixtures to occupy third place in the standings. Werder Bremen sit tenth with four points from their first three matches, having displayed mixed consistency across the opening weeks.

FC Augsburg enter this contest with notable attacking momentum, having scored nine goals across their three league fixtures. Their recent outings include a 4-1 away triumph over Eintracht Frankfurt and a 2-2 draw against Bayer Leverkusen, with M. Gregoritsch scoring three times and F. Rieder providing two assists. Werder Bremen defeated RB Leipzig 3-1 at home but suffered a heavy 4-1 loss at SC Freiburg and drew 1-1 with 1. FC Köln.

Absences in midfield and attack present an added challenge for the home side, with S. Lynen, J. Stage, J. Njinmah, K. Topp, and F. Agu all sidelined with injuries. Augsburg also hold recent success in this fixture, having won 3-1 on their last visit to Bremen in May 2026. Given the visitors' offensive fluency and unbeaten start, Augsburg appear well equipped to take something from this encounter.
