19th matchday in the Bundesliga: SV Werder Bremen welcomes SC Freiburg on Saturday (3:30 p.m. in the DeichStube live ticker) – and wants to remain unbeaten in the sixth game in a row.
The preliminary report from the DeichStube.
Bremen - The press conference before the home game against
SC Freiburg
(Saturday, 3:30 p.m. (in the DeichStube live ticker) was just one, maybe two minutes old, as
Ole Werner
, the head coach of
SV Werder Bremen
, had already made it clear made it clear that there was one topic he wasn't too keen on, let's say: namely his team's sensational 1-0 win at FC Bayern Munich, which - according to the opening question in a report - made for a lovely evening straight after the game Werner's answer, expressed in the most sober tone: "In the end, the evening went like any other after an away game: We made sure we got home quickly. We analyzed the game there the next day . Just like we do with every game.”
Werder Bremen in the live ticker against SC Freiburg - OIe Werner: Bayern game “gave us a lot of positive things”
So business as usual, nothing special and hardly worth mentioning before the next task - if
Ole Werner's
aim was to drive away possible arrogance from his team with demonstrative objectivity after the Bayern game, then he must have succeeded.
On the other hand, the 35-year-old coach of
SV Werder Bremen
is of course aware that the victory has provided an important tailwind - but he does
n't want it to die down immediately against
SC Freiburg .
“The Munich game gives us a lot of positive things,” said
Ole Werner
, before immediately adding: “It’s still important that we do our work and get the switch turned on, because on Saturday at 3:30 p.m. it won’t do anything for us “We showed in Munich if we don’t get the basics back on the pitch,” said the head coach of
SV Werder Bremen
.
This is what SV Werder Bremen's starting eleven against SC Freiburg could look like!
Werder Bremen in the live ticker against SC Freiburg: Ole Werner demands more physicality when defending
Uncompromising in duels, courageous with the ball and well organized as a unit - that's how
SV Werder Bremen
presented themselves to the record champions, and these points should now be seen again
against seventh-placed
SC Freiburg .
Even if
Ole Werner
points out that the task cannot be compared to the one against Bayern.
“Against Freiburg it will be about having a completely different physicality when defending, defending long balls and, above all, defending crosses in the penalty area,” said the head coach of
SV Werder Bremen
about
SC Freiburg
, who have already been there this season scored seven goals from crosses - that's the current Bundesliga record.
Werder aren't doing much worse in this category with six goals.
Werder Bremen against SC Freiburg in the live ticker: Bremen could put themselves in a great starting position with a home win
One thing is clear: If more points come into Werder's account against Breisgauer, who have played 0-0 against Union Berlin so far this year and won 3-2 against TSG Hoffenheim, it would be a very pleasant week for Bayern. Victory and investor entry round off the event and consolidate the spirit of optimism that has emerged in and around the club within just a few days.
With at best 23 points, Bremen could secure themselves in the middle of the table after the 19th matchday of the season, which would be a great starting position before the upcoming duels with their direct competition.
As a reminder: After the home game against
SC Freiburg ,
Werder Bremen
will
play Mainz, Heidenheim, Cologne and Darmstadt - so at the end of February it could be clear whether there will be a reasonably quiet or rather dramatic season finale.
Thoughts that
Ole Werner
has certainly had before, but which the coach prefers to put in the back of his mind if he doesn't forget them straight away.
For now, only
SC Freiburg should count,
SV Werder Bremen
's win
against FC Bayern no longer counts, nor anything after Saturday.

Werder Bremen against SC Freiburg in the live ticker - Ole Werner: “It’s really one of the most demanding tasks mentally”
“It's really one of the most mentally demanding tasks,” says
Ole Werner
about the duel against Breisgauer, whose style of play impresses him.
“At Freiburg there is a very clear plan in all situations.
You can never be calm, even if the ball is in your own half, you have to be awake.”
Werder Bremen
managed this for a long time in the first half of the season before conceding a goal in the final phase, which ultimately made it 0-1 -Defeat at
SC Freiburg
sealed the deal.
“We haven’t achieved much since promotion against Freiburg,” was Werner’s euphemistic description of the fact that Bremen suffered three defeats in the three games since autumn 2022.
“Nevertheless, we want to go into the game confident.
We have stabilized in the last few weeks and have always been able to get points against teams from different table regions," said
Ole Werner
- and stated: "We want to continue the positive development of the last few weeks and months, keep scoring, And we need a top performance against a team like Freiburg that plays internationally.”
Werder Bremen
showed it against Bayern.
Even if Werner doesn't like to talk about it that much,
preferring to strive for the next good performance against
SC Freiburg .
