No team has had more shots on target since Berlin’s counter-attacks (16) and no Bundesliga team has conceded more shots on target in such situations than Werder (19).

A possible candidate in the squad is central defender Filip Uremovic, who has returned to training midweek. Jessic Ngankam, Marton Dardai and Kelian Nsona will be absent.
Citation: “The Bremen team have clear processes with and against the ball, appear in a very structured way and always represent a goal threat. They did very well as a promoted team, “Schwarz said of the opponent.
