Jan Åge FjørtoftHOST
He's been a kind of a name that we've had.
Jan Åge FjørtoftHOST
And unbelievable, they played against Augsburg, who's been more or less top of the league.
Jan Åge FjørtoftHOST
2-1 up in Bremen.

Welcome back to Weekly Football Recap, your weekly dose of European and South American football analysis.
speaker_1HOST
I'm your host, and today we're diving into a thrilling Bundesliga encounter that saw Werder Bremen edge out FC Augsburg in a five-goal thriller.
speaker_1HOST
On Saturday, September 19th, 2026, the Westerstadion played host to a match that had it all drama, goals, and a result that will have significant implications for both sides as the season progresses.
speaker_1HOST
Werder Bremen emerged victorious, securing a hard-fought 3-2 win over SC Augsburg.
speaker_1HOST
And then there's the other German encounter we had.
speaker_1HOST
Werder Bremen edging out FC Augsburg 3-2.
speaker_1HOST
Another high-scoring affair, this one going away of the home side.
speaker_1HOST
Bremen are showing they're a tough outfit to beat at home.
Steve WyssHOST
I wouldn't have a problem going over with that, but it's bringing it down to 2.5 for the first part of that double.
Steve WyssHOST
And the other match I'm choosing, Werder Bremen-Augsburg, which it let me down last week with the 1-1 draw between... of Cole and Werder Bremen, but it should have gone over.
Steve WyssHOST
It was a really open match.
Steve WyssHOST
I think from a Werder Bremen point of view, they're what I call a licorice or salt team.
Steve WyssHOST
I don't really rate their defence much.
Steve WyssHOST
It's a big problem.
Steve WyssHOST
And Augsburg are scoring goals.
Steve WyssHOST
Nine goals scored so far.
Chuck SmithHOST
But for this massive roster drop, the one overarching squad, let's get into it.
Chuck SmithHOST
The goalkeepers, Noah Atabolu from Eintracht Frankfurt, Finn Dahmen from FC Augsburg, Alexander Neubel from Besiktas, Marc-Andre Ter Stegen from Ajax, and Jonas Erbig from Bayern Munich.
Chuck SmithHOST
Let's talk a little bit about these selections here.
Chuck SmithHOST
Obviously, all five guys are talented.
Chuck SmithHOST
A good, young goalkeeper, no doubt about it.
Chuck SmithHOST
However, he's got competition here.
Chuck SmithHOST
Finn Dahmen from FC Augsburg has probably been the best goalkeeper in the Bundesliga so far this season.
Chuck SmithHOST
He was great last year, has played a massive role in the turnaround for Augsburg.
Rory PetreHOST
So, yeah, for me, it's going to be a 2-1 away win for the Billy Goats.
Rory PetreHOST
Moving on then, Werder Bremen take on FC Augsburg on Saturday afternoon as well.
Rory PetreHOST
I think, like we said, Bremen had done actually quite OK in fits and bursts, not obviously anything outstanding.
Rory PetreHOST
That win against Leipzig was excellent.
Rory PetreHOST
They picked their moments really well.
Rory PetreHOST
to upset them, playing, you know, against a very on-song Augsburg side, Mark.
Rory PetreHOST
I think, yeah, in recent years as well, Augsburg have had a pretty good record.
Rory PetreHOST
They've not lost in the last two seasons against Bremen, you know, including the 3-1 win last time out.
DanHOST
They'll be organized around the first two games and the second two games.
DanHOST
There's one player who's going to be in both squads, and that's Finn Darman, the goalkeeper from Augsburg, is in both squads.
DanHOST
And then there's three players who will remain in camp the whole time, which is Serge Gnabry, Jamal Musiala, and Nico Schlotterbeck, who are guys who haven't played a lot lately and who would benefit from being in and around the camp, but perhaps not playing all four games.
DanHOST
So, unconventional, uh, unconventional, um, approach.
Dan HargreavesGUEST
Léo Svensson was Saints' player of the season last year.
Dan HargreavesGUEST
Obviously, Harwood-Bellis is a massive miss, but they've signed Kevin Schlöglbeck from FC Augsburg, who started really, really well.
Dan HargreavesGUEST
They've got Kasper Janda, the midfielder, um, to still come back.
Dan HargreavesGUEST
He might be able to make it on Saturday.
Chuck SmithHOST
They've got seven goals for, two against, a goal differential of five.
Chuck SmithHOST
They have seven points, and even though they are tied with Augsburg in terms of points, the goal differential somehow favors Augsburg, who has nine goals, four and three against.
Chuck SmithHOST
Credit to Augsburg.
Chuck SmithHOST
They just keep doing it.
Chuck SmithHOST
Bayern, of course, last week had that 2-1 win over SVL Elversburg.
Gareth WheelerHOST
So I will take a little bit of a nibble at the over.
Gareth WheelerHOST
I want to back Augsburg at Werder Bremen.
Gareth WheelerHOST
Augsburg's still a really good side.
Gareth WheelerHOST
They played two difficult teams back-to-back in Eintracht Frankfurt and Bayer Leverkusen.
Gareth WheelerHOST
This should be a more straightforward fixture.
Gareth WheelerHOST
I know that Bremen won at home against Leipzig.
Gareth WheelerHOST
Maybe that's why they're a little bit of a favorite in this game, but Werder Bremen have lost the XG in every match thus far.
Gareth WheelerHOST
So you get Augsburg on the handicap at plus a quarter of a goal, where you're back in the better team, in my opinion, at minus 115.
