Match preview

Werder Bremen host Köln in the Bundesliga on 29 November 2025. Werder Bremen sit 16th on 29 points and Köln are 14th on 31. Werder Bremen have won 2 of their last 5 (WDWDL), while Köln have won 2 of 5 (WDLWL). In their last 1 meetings, Werder Bremen won 0, Köln won 1 and 0 ended level. These are probabilities from past results, not guarantees: football upsets happen every week.

How this is worked out

Each club has an Elo rating that moves after every result (bigger wins move it more, home sides get a small boost). We turn the rating gap into expected goals and use a Poisson model to get win, draw and loss chances. The prediction is locked at kick-off and never edited.

Probabilities, not promises. For analysis and entertainment only. 18+.
