Suat Serdar netted his fourth goal of the season against Fortuna Düsseldorf on Saturday. The 22-year-old speaks about the frustrating draw against Fortuna, his performances so far this season and receiving another call-up to the German national team.

FCA head coach Enrico Maaßen made one change to the team which started the 3-1 defeat away in Mainz last weekend, as Kelvin Yeboah replaced Dion Beljo up front – it was Yeboah’s first start for the club, following five substitute appearances. Iago and Ruben Vargas also returned to the squad following their injuries, replacing the ill Niklas Dorsch, and Mads Pedersen, who had a knock.

While many are expecting the Frenchman to ink a contract extension Bayern Munich, the 26-year-old has not closed the book on a return to Atlético Madrid.

Wednesday’s draw saw Freiburg demonstrate the typical that have been evident in the majority of their games this season – strong in duels, courageous and willing to attack. The clash against the defending Europa League champions also showed something else, however, which head coach Streich mentioned at Friday’s press conference. “The team did really well against Frankfurt, but it was only enough to get a draw. That shows you what kind of demands we’re under.”

When your favourite teams are located nearly 10,000 kilometres away from each other, then opportunities for them to play each other are few and far between. For Oscar Perdomo, a fan from Bogotá, Colombia, a dream will come true this week when the Blue-Whites take on his hometown club FC Millonarios (11/01/23, kick-off: 19:00 local time, 01:00 CET, tickets here). The 27-year-old can’t wait, saying “I’m really looking forward to the game and hope that it will be a great day for fans of the blue and white,” he said in an interview with herthabsc.de (Millonarios’ club colours are also blue and white). Perdomo is not sure yet who he will be supporting when the two face off this week. “Most likely, I’ll have conflicting feelings, but that’s how it should be,” he said with a grin. Perdomo was unable to make the trip to Florida to watch the game live, but will be following the match via the livestream, which will be available in 13 countries.

The substitutes: Philipp, Bičakčić, Dabbur, Rudy, Akpoguma, Kramarić, Nsoki, Bischof, Asllani
