Borussia Dortmund put in a professional away performance to beat Werder Bremen 2-0 in the Bundesliga, with the home side offering nothing in return. Connor Maguire pulls no punches on what went wrong.

Two sides who cannot keep a clean sheet, leaking goals at an alarming rate and trending in the wrong direction. Saturday's Bundesliga fixture at the Volksparkstadion has the makings of an open, uncomfortable afternoon for both defences.

Werder Bremen host FC Augsburg on Saturday carrying one of the most alarming defensive records in the Bundesliga, with six players currently sidelined and a home clean sheet percentage of zero across their last ten matches.

Both 1. FC Köln and Werder Bremen arrive at RheinEnergieStadion carrying negative momentum and deeply concerning recent form. Something has to give, but the structural problems on both sides suggest this will be a match defined by what neither team can do.

Werder Bremen host RB Leipzig on Saturday carrying one of the Bundesliga's most troubling home records, but Leipzig arrive with their own demons on the road. Something has to give.

VfB Stuttgart host 1. FC Köln on Friday evening carrying the most convincing home record in this fixture, and the visiting side's away form tells a story that goes far deeper than results alone.

Köln host Hoffenheim on 29 August carrying one of the division's most alarming underlying profiles, while the visitors arrive with a momentum slope that tells a very different story to their recent results.
