Werder Bremen will host Bayern Munich in the DFB-Pokal on Saturday, February 14, 2026, at the Weserstadion. The Bavarians are balancing domestic cup ambitions and a tightening Bundesliga title race. Bayern are sitting at the top of the league table with 54 points. However, Dortmund are in second place, only three points behind Bayern.
This adds significant weight to every competitive fixture. Meanwhile, Bremen are entrenched in the relegation playoff spot, fighting to retain their spot in the top-flight. They’re arriving under new manager Daniel Thioune amid an 11-game winless league run.

Werder Bremen vs Bayern Munich Match Details
Competition: Bundesliga
Date & kickoff: Saturday, February 14, 2026 – 9:30 AM ET / 2:30 PM GT
Venue: Wohninvest Weserstadion, Bremen, Germany
Expected XIs: Werder Bremen 3-5-2 vs Bayern Munich 4-2-3-1
Best Bet for Werder Bremen vs Bayern Munich
Our best bet for Werder Bremen vs Bayern Munich is Harry Kane to Score Anytime at -175 (BetMGM) / -240 (FanDuel).
Harry Kane has remained Bayern’s focal point in central zones. He is leading the line in Vincent Kompany’s 4-2-3-1 system and consistently ranking among the Bundesliga leaders for non-penalty xG. In Bayern’s recent 5-1 dismantling of Hoffenheim, the Bavarians generated over six xG and 11 big chances. Most of these came from Kane receiving balls inside the box.
Across Bayern’s last 10 matches in all competitions, they have scored 22 goals. They’ve also produced multiple games with three or more xGs. Additionally, Kane is averaging well over three shots per 90 minutes in league play this season. Conversely, Bremen have conceded at least two goals in six of their last 10 Bundesliga matches. They have also allowed high shot volumes inside their own penalty area.
Their recent 1-0 defeat to Freiburg saw them concede nearly 1.5 xGA despite playing against 10 men for a substantial stretch. With Amos Pieper and Niklas Stark sidelined at the back, their defensive play will be further compromised. Against a Bayern side that have scored five goals in eight separate matches this season, Kane’s chances of scoring in this match is high.
Werder Bremen vs Bayern Munich Prediction
Our pick: Bayern Munich to Win at -300 (BetMGM) / -370 (FanDuel)
Bayern Munich have won seven of the last eight meetings with Bremen in all competitions. This includes a 4-0 win in September 2025. In that encounter, Bayern controlled possession, generated significantly higher xG, and limited Bremen to minimal shot creation. The Bavarians have also won seven, drawn one, and lost two games. They’ve scored 24 goals while conceding nine.
They are unbeaten in their last seven away games across all competitions. They’ve won six of them, and have averaged above 2.3 goals per game on the road during that stretch. Their pressing has improved with centre-backs Jonathan Tah and Kim Min-jae providing recovery speed and aerial dominance. Comparatively, Bremen are winless in 11 consecutive Bundesliga games.
In their last 10 league fixtures, they have scored just eight goals while conceding 19. Their xG average is below 1.1 per match and their home form has been inconsistent. Although they were holding a three-match winning streak at home, they’ve since registered three draws and two defeats in their last five at Weserstadion. Considering the gulf in quality and recent form, Bayern could comfortably win this game.

Same-Game Parlay (Bet Builder) for Werder Bremen vs Bayern Munich
Bet $100 to Win $138.61 (FanDuel) Total Goals Over 2.5 (-320) + BTTS: Yes (-164) + Harry Kane to Score Anytime (-240)
Bremen may be vastly outmatched to Bayern’s capabilities, but they have the capacity to contribute a goal, especially with the game to be held at their home. Bayern have scored 11 goals across their last four matches in all competitions. They have also exceeded 2.5 total goals in six of their last eight fixtures.
Harry Kane may be their ace, but they still have players like Luis Diaz and Jamal Musials who are just as dangerous. However, Bayern have conceded in three of their last four matches, allowing four goals in that span. While defensively solid overall, they have not kept a clean sheet in every recent outing, especially on the road.
Bremen, despite their struggles, have managed to score in three of their last five home matches. They’re also typically generating around 1.0 xG per game at Weserstadion. Combining Over 2.5 goals with Both Teams to Score captures the likelihood of Bayern’s multi-goal output with Kane at the centre, alongside Bremen exploiting at least one transitional opportunity.
Bayern’s matches frequently surpass the three-goal threshold due to their aggressive attacking form and high xG generation. Bremen’s defensive instability increases the likelihood of conceding multiple times. Yet their scoring frequency at home says that they are capable of finding the net at least once. Kane remains the most probable individual scorer given his shot volume, penalty duties, and central role in the final third.
