Both Dortmund and Wolfsburg are yet to lose in the Bundesliga, which makes this game all the more interesting. A return to home scenery will surely give Borussia a boost, but will it be enough against a sturdy Wolfsburg side?
Borussia Dortmund Team News
After a truly breathtaking second half in Turin during the midweek, Borussia Dortmund and Niko Kovac in particular are sure to be disappointed with how the team lost a 2 goal advantage in stoppage time. Although a spectacle, the game against Juventus showcased an ongoing issue at Borussia – the defence. Even if Kovac did manage to stabilise the team defensively, there are still a ways to go. The good news for Dortmund, however, is that they will face Wolfsburg at home, and the Black and Yellows generally tend to perform way better as hosts. Additionally, Borussia have also managed to score at least 2 goals in all of their Bundesliga games thus far and are also undefeated.
VfL Wolfsburg Team News
Despite losing leads to draw in their last 2 league outings, Wolfsburg remains undefeated as well and in relatively good form to boost. Boss Paul Simonis will be hoping to extend this good form to the Signal Iduna Park as well and take advantage of several factors. For starters, Wolfsburg will have had more time to prepare and rest. Secondly, Dortmund might be in a little bit of shock after they dropped a 2-goal lead in stoppage time against Juventus. However, Wolfsburg themselves have also been stung deep in stoppage time, particularly against Koln, where the latest-ever Bundesliga goal was scored and have also shown a tendency to losing leads.
Head-to-Head-Games

Werder Bremen vs VfL Wolfsburg Betting Prediction
For this game, my selection is Borussia Dortmund to win and the game to produce over 2.5 goals. The hosts have scored at least 2 goals in all of their league matches thus far and are generally known for a good attack, coupled with a shoddy defence. Wolfsburg has also been partial to high-scoring fixtures lately, as they have scored 3 goals in 2 of their 3 league games thus far, but have also failed to keep a clean sheet in the period. All of these points to me to believe that we will see goals here and a win for the Dortmund team that shows up almost every time as a host.
