Werder women on track: win against bottom-placed Jena!
After an exciting first half, the Bundesliga game between WERDERFRAUEN and FC Carl Zeiss Jena is 1-0 for Bremen. Larissa Mühlhaus scored the goal with a penalty in the 45th minute. While the Bremen women are highly motivated, the situation for Jena does not look rosy: with only three points from three draws and a record of eight defeats, FC Carl Zeiss Jena is currently bottom of the table. In addition, they have yet to win in the Bundesliga this season. This dramatic initial situation is illuminated by Deichstube.
The game will take place on December 6, 2025 in the Ernst-Abbe-Sportfeld in the ad hoc Arena. It will not only be followed with excitement on site, but will also be broadcast live on DAZN and Magenta Sport. Coach Friederike “Fritzy” Kromp previously led the WERDERFRAUEN to four wins and one draw in November and is determined to continue the streak. “We have to maintain the high pace and take Jena seriously,” she emphasized before the game. After all, the Jena women are successful despite their position in the cup and recently defeated Union Berlin in the DFB Cup round of 16, as the Werder website reports.
The teams in detail
The Bremen women's starting XI includes the following players: El Sherif, Weiß, Ulbrich, Nemeth, D'Angelo, Hausicke, Wirtz, Wieder, Mühlhaus, Sternad and Desic. A small change in the lineup: Rieke Dieckmann plays for the injured Juliane Wirtz. Jena, on the other hand, relies on Janning, Sträßer, Ihlenburg, Mummert, Gora, Julevic, Mühlemann, Schmid, Jaron, Gentile and Tietz.
The Jena women have scored 10 goals so far this season, with Isabella Jaron being the top scorer with three goals and three assists. Despite the scary ranking, they are not discouraged by the Bundesliga season so far. “It’s important that we believe in ourselves,” said coach Florian Kästner before the game.
Outlook and challenges
After the game there are important dates for the WERDERWOEN. The draw for the DFB Cup quarter-finals will take place on December 7, 2025. Saskia Matheis returns to the squad after her injury, while the team has to do without Caroline Siems, Tuana Mahmoud and Lena Petermann kicker reported.
All fans can eagerly await the outcome of this exciting encounter. The current table situation and the form of both teams promise an interesting match. It remains to be seen whether WERDERFRAUEN can continue their winning streak while Jena hopes for their first win in the Bundesliga.
