SV Werder Bremen got a new week of training underway on Wednesday morning, as they begin preparations for their encounter with FC Augsburg at the weekend (Saturday, 15:30 CEST). Ole Werner and his coaching staff were without a quintet of Werder players, while Felix Agu completed an indoor session at the wohninvest WESERSTADION in order to monitor his workload.

FCA’s clash on matchday 31 will certainly be a special one, with the game also functioning as a celebration of the club’s success in the 1973/74 Regionalliga 50 years ago. Starting from 11:00 CEST, fans will be able to take part in a range of events outside the stadium, before heading indoors to cheer on the boys. Head coach Jess Thorup is looking forward to experiencing the “special atmosphere” present on the day, and his hopeful that his side will be able to bounce back from last week’s 3-1 defeat against Eintracht Frankfurt.

“We have to be ready to give it our all – it’s vital that we show a reaction,” explained the 54-year-old ahead of Saturday’s clash. Thorup is also yet to forget his team’s meeting with Werder in the first round of matches, which saw FCA deliver a disappointing performance and fall to a 2-0 defeat as a result. Augsburg have picked up an impressive 21 points in the second half of the season so far, which they’re hoping to build on in the remaining fixtures. “We’re happy to have avoided relegation, but we now have to continue moving forward.”
