Bremen celebrates its first home win: 2-0 against weak Frankfurt!
Today, January 16th, 2026, SV Werder Bremen met Eintracht Frankfurt in an exciting Bundesliga duel. The game ended with a clear 2-0 win for Bremen, who were able to free themselves from the crisis. Before kick-off, expectations were high, both among players and fans, especially considering both teams' worst performances in recent weeks.
Werder Bremen, after a series of five games without a win in the Bundesliga, had decided to finally get three points again. They previously lost 3-0 to Borussia Dortmund and had only scored 18 goals in 16 games this season. In front of their home crowd, they were only able to score eight goals in seven games, which further increased the tense situation. On the other hand, there was Eintracht, who had to record their last point win against Stuttgart after a narrow 2:3 defeat. The injury to new signing Younes Ebnoutalib was particularly painful, as [Wettbasis] reports that he will be out for a long time due to a serious knee injury.
The gameplay
The match began with many intense duels in midfield, with Werder Bremen acting powerfully right from the start. In the 28th minute, Oliver Burke scored the first goal for Bremen, causing cheers among the fans in the stadium. Romano Schmid also contributed to the victory in the 84th minute when he added the second goal for Bremen. Frankfurt didn't really find its way into the game and was unable to crack Bremen's defense or create dangerous chances. The weaknesses in defense became clear as the Commerzbank Arena team had already conceded a total of 36 goals in the last few weeks, making it the most vulnerable away defense in the league.
Eintracht Frankfurt had difficulty putting their offensive players in the spotlight throughout the game. Hugo Ekitiké and Michy Batshuayi were unable to provide any decisive impetus and were thwarted several times by the Bremen defense. The game concluded with Ekitiké's last attempt in stoppage time, which was blocked.
Ranking and outlook
With the win, Werder Bremen improves in the table. They currently have 17 points after 17 games and are now ahead of Hamburger SV. Eintracht is in seventh place with 26 points after dropping some valuable points in recent games. The pressure will increase in the coming weeks as both Werder Bremen and Eintracht need to find their form. The Bundesliga is more exciting than ever this year and the teams are fighting for every position. The current standings show the different form curves that could become clear in the next games.
| Association | games | Victories | Points |

It will be exciting to see how the situation between the two teams develops. The coming week will be crucial for Eintracht if they have the chance to stop the downward trend. The fans hope for a return to their old strength and for the team to regain the necessary stability.
