SV Werder Bremen

On Saturday, 27th April (15:30 CEST), SV Werder Bremen will make a trip to the south to take on FC Augsburg at the WWK ARENA. After inflicting a 2-1 defeat on VfB Stuttgart last weekend, the Green-Whites are looking to continue down the same path of success with another victory against the Fuggerstädter on matchday 31. FCA have accumulated enough points to secure their place in next season’s Bundesliga, and with a spot in European football still very much on the cards, the side will be all fired up from the second the ball starts rolling on Saturday afternoon.

SV Werder Bremen’s 2-1 victory over VfB Stuttgart certainly came as a relief for both the fans and the club as a whole. The Green-Whites are now seven points clear of the relegation zone, and are sat in a comfortable 11th place ahead of the final few fixtures in the current campaign. Despite this, Ole Werner was hesitant to discuss his side’s survival in the pre-match press conference prior to the meeting with FC Augsburg on Saturday, 27th April (15:30 CEST), arguing that: “We know exactly where we stand in terms of our position in the table and the fact that we still need to pick up more points.”

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.

In the closing stages of SV Werder Bremen’s 2-1 win over Stuttgart, midfielder Romano Schmid stood on the sidelines, looking on anxiously. The Austrian had put in an enormous shift to help secure the three points which moved Werder seven clear of the relegation zone. Speaking to the press on Wednesday, Schmid said: “It was a huge relief. If we’re at 100 percent on matchday and everyone gives everything for each other, we’re a good team.”

On Sunday afternoon, SV Werder Bremen were able to pick up a vital three points towards their quest for survival with a 2-1 victory over third-place side VfB Stuttgart. The Green-Whites certainly didn’t crumble under the pressure and were finally able to celebrate another win in front of 42,100 fans at the wohninvest WESERSTADION. Marvin Ducksch stepped up to the plate for SVW and found the back of the net twice (28’, 49’), after which things became tense as Deniz Undav got one back for the visitors (72’), but the Green-Whites held firm until the final whistle and were able to reap the rewards of their hard work.

SV Werder Bremen were beaming from ear to ear in the mixed zone after they inflicted a 2-1 defeat on VfB Stuttgart on home soil. The Green-Whites stuck together and emerged victorious against the third-place side, and were finally able to put an end to their seven-game run without a win. WERDER.DE spoke to Ole Werner and the players after the game to gather the reaction to the win.

SV Werder face another tough test when they take on VfB Stuttgart at the wohninvest WESERSTADION at 15:30 CEST on Sunday, 21.04.24. Head coach Sebastian Hoeneß’s side are looking to keep on picking up points in order to secure European qualification. SVW also want to get back to winning ways, whilst they have been boosted by the return of three players.

After two away games on the trot, SV Werder Bremen are finally back at their stomping ground on Sunday, 21st April (15:30 CEST) to take on VfB Stuttgart. Head coach Ole Werner and head of professional football Clemens Fritz were in the mixed zone on Friday afternoon to answer the journalists’ questions ahead of the upcoming clash on matchday 30.

At 32 years old, Anthony Jung is one of the most experienced players in SVW’s current squad, and the defender has showed that he’s still got a lot to give over the course of this season. Jung has found himself playing in a new role after shifting from a full-back to central defence. He’s thrived in the new position so far, having racked up over 2,000 minutes in the Green-Whites’ backline this campaign. Werder’s Mr. Reliable had been named in the starting XI by Ole Werner for every game since matchday 7, until his streak came to an end due to suspension. After sitting out of SVW’s last two matches, Jung can’t wait to get back out on the pitch this weekend against VfB Stuttgart.

Werder Bremen have suspended Naby Keïta until the end of the season. The club have also handed the midfielder a substantial fine. The 29-year-old will no longer train with the team or be part of the first-team dressing room.
