Füllkrug’s confidence is contagious – I’ve seen a striker’s swagger turn a whole team into a more aggressive unit, and he’s been that catalyst for Werder this season. Their recent fixtures show a higher pressing intensity and a better conversion rate inside the box, especially from set‑pieces where Füllkrug thrives. If he gets on the scoresheet early, Werder’s midfield will push forward even harder, and that could unsettle Dortmund’s rhythm before they settle into their usual home comfort.
That said, Dortmund’s home record is still impressive, and Schlotterbeck’s surprise hasn’t really shaken their defensive core; they’ve just tightened up around him. Their recent form suggests they’ll control possession and look to exploit the flanks, where Werder’s full‑backs have shown some vulnerability. If Dortmund can keep the ball and limit the space for Füllkrug, the odds still tip in their favor.
My gut says it’ll be a tight contest – expect a disciplined Dortmund side to edge it, but keep an eye on the first half. A quick goal from Füllkrug could force Dortmund to open up, and that’s where Werder can capitalize. So, I’m leaning toward a narrow Dortmund win, but a late equaliser from Werder isn’t off the table.
