Wolfsburg are in 12th place, but not a bad result for them. The team had the most difficult calendar. Ralph Hasenhüttl’s team plays as much vertical soccer as possible and emphasizes pressing and a high defensive line. Even with Bochum, the players did not insist on possession, but tried to cut off the opponent with long passes.
Werder play such different matches that it’s hard to determine what kind of soccer they want to play. Since the first round, the flanks have been completely changed. This is primarily focused on more active play in attack. Werder are second from the bottom in the league in terms of shots on goal.
The hosts play very clear soccer. With high pressing and constant long throws of the ball into the other half of the field. They will definitely give away possession, than create a comfortable environment for their own counterattacks. Werder have not performed well against clubs with a similar style, as confirmed by three conceded goals in the first half against Hoffenheim.
