Game Preview
Werder are returning to Germany’s top flight after bouncing back at the first attempt, and they’ll open up their 2022-23 Bundesliga campaign at Volkswagen Arena where they’ll play against VfL Wolfsburg. The hosts were looking bright during some parts of their last campaign, but they ended dropping down the standings, securing a 12th-place finish.
The 2020-21 season was a completely different story for Wolfsburg, finishing the campaign with a top-4 finish. The problem is that having qualified for the Champions League by finishing four, it always felt like Wolfsburg would struggle to match those achievements, especially after their former boss Oliver Glasner surprisingly departed for Eintracht Frankfurt last summer.
But now that there have been some changes for Wolfsburg, optimism seems to be abundant. Former Bayern Munich manager Niko Kovac joined the club after the former Croatia international enjoyed two successful years with Monaco in Ligue 1. So far this summer, there have been 7 signed players, with midfielder Mattias Svanberg perhaps the pick of the bunch.
On the other side we have Werder, who are coming off a recent promotion to the Bundesliga. Former Holstein Kiel boss Ole Werner hugely improved results after taking over at Weserstadion in November 2021, scoring a 70% win rate from his 20 games in charge so far. Their most recent game was against Energie Cottbus and they picked up a 2-1 victory in the DFB-Pokal.
Having been so close to relegation for several seasons prior to their eventual demotion, Werner’s aim for the coming campaign will be clear: avoid an instant return to 2. Bundesliga. They probably won’t have a strong start as they will travel without Dikeni Salifou, Jean Manuel Mbom and Benjamin Goller, with the trio set to spend significant time on the sidelines due to serious injuries.
