Three matches, three draws - after this start to the season, SV Werder are hungry for their first victory of the 2014-15 season. The Green-Whites' next chance is Saturday, 20 September 2014 at 3:30 p.m. when they take on FC Augsburg at the SGL arena. Look over the following statistics overview to see why Werder have good chances to win, how to beat FCA and what Robin Dutt thinks of Augsburg:

Did you know ...

... that SV Werder have the second-best scoring chance conversion rate in the entire league? The Green-Whites' 22.2 percent in this statistic is second behind only Bayer Leverkusen (23.1 percent). Augsburg have used only 8.8 percent of their chances, the fourth-worst percentage in the league.

... that the Green-Whites have the second-best offence in the league? Whether it's the strikers, midfielders or defenders - every part of the team has scored a goal this season for SV Werder. Di Santo, Bartels and Co. have collected six goals from three matches, making them the second-best offence in the league along with Borussia Dortmund. Only leaders Leverkusen have scored more goals - nine.

... that Bremen are the best comeback team in the Bundesliga? Robin Dutt's team has trailed in all three matches this season but fought back for a point in the end of each of them. They hope for the first victory finally against Augsburg. "It's about time for a victory," said Dutt.

... what Robin Dutt thinks of Markus Weinzierl's team? "Augsburg have established themselves as a Bundesliga team. They have a good team concept and have been doing it very well the last year and a half. I think we need a good mix of respect and confidence. The respect should be exhibited in our commitment and the confidence in the style how we play football."
