High tension in the Weserstadion: Werder Bremen meets FC St. Pauli!
Football fans in northern Germany are looking forward to the duel between Werder Bremen and FC St. Pauli, which takes place on October 4th, 2025. Both teams are under pressure as they have recently suffered two defeats in a row. A trend reversal is urgently required if they want to get back on the road to success.
Especially for FC St. Pauli there is a mixed history with Werder Bremen. While the Kiez-Kicker have fond memories of past duels, including a 3-1 win in the first Bundesliga game in 1977 and a similar success in the DFB Cup in 2006, they have to live with the fact that they have never won at the Weserstadion since the Bundesliga was introduced in 1963. However, coach Alexander Blessin remains optimistic and sees his team on an “equal footing” with Bremen. He has the urgent task of stopping Werder's long balls and at the same time putting pressure on the defense.
Personnel situation
FC St. Pauli can probably rely on a largely unchanged team. Martijn Kaars could celebrate his first starting eleven debut. On the Werder Bremen side, the situation looks a little more complicated. Coach Horst Steffen relies on personnel continuity, but is struggling with injuries and late transfers. The absence of regular goalkeeper Mio Backhaus due to a shoulder injury is particularly painful. Karl Hein will take over the goalkeeper position. Victor Boniface will also not be in the starting line-up due to fitness problems and will be built up carefully. The crowd's support will be crucial for Werder to defend their unbeaten streak against St. Pauli at home.
Current statistics
The current performances of both teams speak for themselves:
| team | games | Victories | draw | Defeats | Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Werder Bremen | 5 | 1 | 1 | 3 | 4 (currently 15th place) |
| FC St Pauli | 2 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 (currently 14th place) |
Werder Bremen have scored 8 goals in their five games so far, but have also conceded 14 goals, which puts their defense in a bad light.
Both coaches and their teams have a lot to gain or lose, which only increases the excitement ahead of this clash. It remains to be seen whether there will ultimately be a trend reversal for one club or another.
All in all, today's match will not only be crucial for the table, but also for the self-confidence of the players and coaches in both camps. The result could be groundbreaking for Werder Bremen and FC St. Pauli, and fans can look forward to a great football game that promises a lot of emotions.
