Analysis
VfB Stuttgart make the trip to wohninvest WESERSTADION to face Werder Bremen in Bundesliga, Regular Season - 30. The match kicks off on Sunday 21 April 2024 at 14:30 UTC.
Form
Werder Bremen (all games): 2W 2D 6L across 10 Bundesliga fixtures this term — 0.80 PPG. Last five: L L L D L. They are averaging 0.80 goals per game and conceding 1.70 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets.
Werder Bremen at wohninvest WESERSTADION this season: 3W 3D 4L from 10 home games — 1.20 PPG on home soil. At home they are averaging 1.30 goals scored and 1.40 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their home matches — a rate that supports the Yes angle in this fixture.
VfB Stuttgart have collected 2.60 PPG across 10 Bundesliga outings this season: 8W 2D 0L. Last five: W W D W W. Their attacking form is sharp — 2.40 goals per game is a high-output rate that commands respect in the goals markets. 4 clean sheets in 10 outings (40%) underlines their defensive solidity. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market.
On the road, VfB Stuttgart have gone 6W 0D 4L from 10 away fixtures this term (1.80 PPG). Away from home they average 1.50 goals scored and 1.40 conceded per game. Their away PPG of 1.80 is notably below their overall 2.60 — form away from home has been a clear weakness this season.
On a straight form reading, VfB Stuttgart are the stronger side — 1.80 PPG clear of the hosts (2.60 vs 0.80). Backing them with draw insurance is the conservative play if the outright away price appears short.
H2H Analysis
The head-to-head record is closely matched — Werder Bremen lead 1W to 3W over the last 5 encounters, with 1 draws, though neither side has established a commanding advantage.
The 5 previous meetings have averaged 2.4 goals per game — a neutral rate that provides no strong lean on the goals market from the H2H alone. The most recent clash, on 2 Dec 2023, ended 0–2 with VfB Stuttgart winning.
The head-to-head offers no strong directional steer in either the result or goals markets. Form, the predictive model and current market pricing should carry more weight than the historical record for this fixture.
Trading
Werder Bremen half-time and goal-timing data (63 games, 31 at home): they score before half-time in 77% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 100% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 68% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 64% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 68% of games (home games).
VfB Stuttgart half-time and goal-timing data (63 games, 31 at away): they score before half-time in 74% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 93% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 64% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 64% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 74% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 38%.
From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — Werder Bremen 64% and VfB Stuttgart 64% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. Over 2.5 goals is well-supported by both sides' in-play profiles (Werder Bremen 62% | VfB Stuttgart 68%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Werder Bremen 1.15 xG and VfB Stuttgart 1.65 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Werder Bremen attack 0.852 / defence 1.086 | VfB Stuttgart attack 1.086 / defence 0.817. League average goals — home 1.658 / away 1.400. Data: 63 Werder Bremen games / 63 VfB Stuttgart games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Werder Bremen 25% | Draw 27% | VfB Stuttgart 48%. Fair-value odds: Werder Bremen 4.00 | Draw 3.70 | VfB Stuttgart 2.08. VfB Stuttgart hold a narrow Poisson edge at 48% — the draw (27%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 53% | BTTS probability 57% | Total xG 2.80. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 53%/47% — the total xG of 2.80 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 57% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is VfB Stuttgart at 48% — moderate model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw probability of 27% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on VfB Stuttgart if the outright odds are short.
On the goals line, Poisson's 2.80 combined xG gives a 53% probability to Over 2.5 — reasonable, supported by form averaging 2.8 goals per game.
The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 57%. Form rates corroborate: Werder Bremen 60% | VfB Stuttgart 50% BTTS from recent games.

The Model vs The Result
