Home is the best…
The weakness at home was a big annoyance for long stretches of the season. While Werder are now collecting their points, as they did against Bochum (3-0) in the Weser Stadium, Bremen are increasingly struggling abroad. In the last six away games they have only been successful once, five times (Freiburg, Bayern, Cologne, Frankfurt, Augsburg) the eleven went from coach Ole Werner blank. In addition, the stupid cup-off in Paderborn. Werder only scored points in Stuttgart (2-0).

Captain Marco Friedl: “In some of these games we beat ourselves. It’s bitter that we can do it at home and not abroad. It would be nice if we could manage stability and flow.”
Instead, successes in the Weser Stadium and away dampers alternate. “It’s getting on our nerves,” says Niklas Schmidt.
Werder slips up abroad and snores
The midfield man is annoyed after the good but unsuccessful performance in Augsburg (1:2) even twice. Because there Werder conceded again shortly after the start of half-time (6th/46th). A phenomenon that has been increasing in recent months. soccer boss Clemens Fritz: “I can’t see a specific reason, especially since we didn’t change anything in the procedures either before the game or during the break. It’s definitely not due to the way the coach spoke.”
Wins in Dortmund, Bochum and Hoffenheim, points won in Wolfsburg and Leverkusen – this is how Werder started the first season after being promoted again. But success stories in foreign fields have become a rarity. Only three of 18 possible counters are a meager interim balance. But why it is so remains a mystery for Werder.
Fritz: “There is no reason for this phenomenon. It’s probably just coincidence. It’s a fact that we were more successful away from home at the beginning of the season. But in the end it doesn’t matter where we get the points.”
Next opportunity: Sunday (5:30 p.m.) against Leverkusen – at home in the Weser Stadium!
