SV Werder Bremen is playing away against FC Bayern Munich on Tuesday (8.30 p.m., in the DeichStube live ticker) and is hoping for a “perfect day”.

The DeichStube preliminary report on the 14th matchday in the Bundesliga.

Bremen – It has been hanging over

like a dark cloud for years , the frightening record against

.

And it's gotten more and more oppressive.

Bremen have not defeated the industry leader for 25 Bundesliga games and have suffered some heavy beatings, especially in Munich.

But that's exactly where the green-whites are now required (Tuesday, 8.30 p.m.,

).

At least in the cabin, the past should not be an issue.

"I don't think any of the players know this series or how long it's going to last," explained coach Ole Werner.

Werder's course of the season so far ensures that the eyes of many fans are not quite as scared this time towards the kick-off.

Bremen have already collected 21 points before the

as seventh in the table, leaders

have 28. There have been significantly larger discrepancies between the two clubs.

However, the trip to the Allianz Arena is not supposed to be a nice trip.

"We don't see this as a bonus game," emphasized Clemens Fritz, head of professional football at

.

"We must not allow such thoughts in the first place, because that would only hamper our performance."

And if

can't use anything from the subscription champions, then it's restraint.

is sure, the game requires nothing

less than the optimum.

"You need a perfect day and you have to hope that the others have a rather bad one," he said.

"And then you always need a little bit of luck and a good gameplay." Quite a lot of things that have to come together in a single encounter.

“There are tasks that are supposedly easy and there are tasks that are supposedly more difficult.

The game in

is certainly the most difficult away game that you can have on paper and also with Bayern's current form," said Werner.

The figures support this assessment.

The league leaders

scored by far the most of all Bundesliga teams with 41 goals and in return only conceded twelve goals.

Coach Julian Nagelsmann’s team have scored 16 points from the past six league games and also impressed on international terrain.

Somehow

now have to try to stop this impressive run.

"It's important for us that we continue to compete with this positive feeling that we have gained through the last two victories," said Clemens Fritz, who himself had to make some unpleasant experiences as a player in the south of the country.

"We want to show Bayern Munich that courage and belief in their own performance.

We know it's an incredibly good team we're up against, but we still want to stay true to ourselves and bring our qualities to the pitch."

And so ideally grab it where

makes it possible.

"You always have to be careful when you talk about the best team in Germany, a real world-class team and describe something as a weakness," said

.

"I didn't find any that I would betray, but of course you try to recognize certain areas in an opponent's order that you can perhaps use for yourself." How is that supposed to work?

"The accuracy and speed must be of the highest quality," demanded the 34-year-old

coach .

"But we also know that there may be many situations in which one is sometimes deeper than is usually our way."

But Werner is actually reading too much coffee grounds again.

"You can philosophize all day long, but in the end it always boils down to one thing: you have to do your homework and play your best game." Not just because, but also when the opponent is

.

Bad memories or not.

"We're not the only ones with a bad record against Bayern.

We don't have to be ashamed of that, most clubs in Germany feel the same way," said Werner.

The drought at

But maybe this time everything will be different.

In the 26th attempt.

Or as Werner put it: "Then let's try it..." (mbü)
