Match description
Borussia Dortmund are favorites based on season metrics: the visitors sit 2nd with 21 wins versus Werder’s 8 wins (Werder 15th), and goal difference of 68 scored and 34 conceded compared to the hosts’ 37 scored and 58 conceded. Werder at home generates average xG 1.72 and attempts 15.81 shots per match with 4.81 on target, but this converts to only 1.19 goals per match and a shot conversion rate of 8%. Dortmund away average 11 shots with 3.88 on target, have a higher conversion of 16% and score 1.75 goals per match, while their share of shutout matches is only 6% versus Werder’s 31%. Defensively Werder concedes 1.81 goals at home, whereas Dortmund concede 1.13 away and record 31% clean sheets versus the hosts’ 19%; in the last 5 matches Werder scored 6 and conceded 9 (form 1-1-3, 0.8 pts/match), Dortmund scored 8 and conceded 6 (form 2-0-3, 1.2 pts/match). Considering the advantage in number of wins (21 vs 8), better finishing efficiency (16% vs 8%) and a much lower no-goal rate (6% vs 31%), I forecast an away win.
