Bremen – The working day began with a serenade.

Not for anyone, but for the head coach of

.

After all,

celebrated his 35th birthday on Thursday.

And so his players tried out a little singing on the training ground.

The challenge that awaits you on Saturday at 6.30 p.m. (in the DeichStube live ticker) is much more difficult.

Somehow they should manage

to defeat

Finally again.

Various teams at

have been trying to do just that for more than 14 years, but they all failed.

If the record champion remains unbeaten in the 27th duel in a row, that would be a new Bundesliga record.

One that really nobody on the Weser is keen on.

Some season ticket holders are already announcing, partly jokingly, partly seriously, that they will not be able to attend the next painful visit to a home game against

Werder Bremen against FC Bayern Munich in the live ticker: Ole Werner calls on the team to be grippy and uncomfortable

"It would be very annoying if things turned out differently and he wasn't there that day," says

with a smile.

“Football is also so popular because there are always these stories.

It's clear that when you play as a promoted player against a top international team like Bayern, not too many people are counting on you beforehand.

Nevertheless, you can always get into a position where, with a bit of luck, something works in the end.

But we have to do that with our own performance first," says the coach of

, who will have to do without top scorer Niclas Füllkrug against Bayern.

Ole Werner

has a clear idea of ​​how his own appearance against

should look

like: "As a team, we have to be grippy and uncomfortable, look for our chances where the opponents might allow them," says the head coach of

.

"For us it's all about the basics of football: compactness, tackling, supporting each other.

But even if you do that 100 percent, there will still be situations where a team of this quality still has solutions.

That's when it's important to have a certain mental stability.” Which is undoubtedly easier said than done – even though Bremen have shown more than once this season that they can cope with setbacks.

However, they have already collected a few too many of them.

In terms of the table, the starting position with a seven-point lead over the relegation place is still relatively pleasant.

Clemens Fritz

, today's head of professional football at

That's even a little longer ago than the start of the current horror series.

On October 21, 2006, there was an exciting 3-1 win in which not only did the crowd's favorite Diego score, but a certain Pierre Womé also scored a free-kick goal that is well worth seeing.

The images are no longer quite present in Fritz' memory.

"To be honest, I don't have fond memories of the games against Bayern," he admits.

But of course he knows what has to come together so that the almost overwhelming Munich can actually be taken by surprise.

"You need a good day, you have to go beyond your performance limit," the 42-year-old enumerates.

"You have to play boldly and have confidence in yourself - then you can beat Bayern."

This is how the starting line-up of SV Werder Bremen against FC Bayern Munich could look like

!

As is well known, not everything was running smoothly at the industry leader.

There was the end of the DFB Cup, later also in the Champions League.

The coach had already been swapped before, and Thomas Tuchel is now in charge instead of Julian Nagelsmann.

In the league there was a 2-0 win against bottom Hertha BSC, but before that FC

showed weaknesses against TSG 1899 Hoffenheim (1-1) and FSV Mainz 05 (1-3).

So does the front runner actually offer a little more attack surface than usual?

"It's always difficult when you talk about weaknesses in a team like this," emphasizes

.

"When we talk about the fact that they lost in Mainz, it is also true that they should have been 3-0 or 4-0 up after half an hour.

It was similar against Hoffenheim.

But we will have to do something for that," said the

coach .
