The 2023-24 edition of the Bundesliga kicks off with a round of games this week as Werder Bremen lock horns with Thomas Tuchel's Bayern Munich side in an important clash at the Weserstadion on Friday.

Werder Bremen vs Bayern Munich Preview

Werder Bremen finished in 13th place in the Bundesliga standings last season and have not been at their best over the past year. The hosts suffered a shock 3-2 defeat at the hands of Viktoria Koln in their previous game and will need to work hard to bounce back this week.

Bayern Munich, on the other hand, claimed the Bundesliga title yet again last season but have flattered to deceive in recent months. The Bavarian side slumped to a damaging 3-0 defeat against RB Leipzig in the DFL Supercup this week and has a point to prove in this fixture.

Werder Bremen vs Bayern Munich Prediction

Bayern Munich have a terrific squad at their disposal but have largely failed to justify their potential in recent months. The Bavarian giants have signed Harry Kane this summer and could hand the striker his Bundesliga debut this week.

Werder Bremen have been inconsistent over the past year and will be up against a formidable opponent in their first league game of the season. Bayern Munich are the better team at the moment and should be able to win this game.

Prediction: Werder Bremen 1-3 Bayern Munich
