Preview for the Darmstadt match

... a current Werder man is likely to be in the squad for the opposition? Leon Guwara moved from Bremen to Darmstadt on loan. The 20-year-old has made twelve appearances in the Bundesliga for the Lilies since then but the left-footer has only featured twice since the winter break. 

... a long-time former Werder player has joined the coaching team at Darmstadt? Torsten Frings spent ten and a half years of his career in a Werder shirt. After he hung up his boots in 2013, he became Viktor Skripnik’s assistant at Werder’s U23s and then also with the first team. Frings then took the next step forward in his managerial career and became first team coach at SV Darmstadt 98. However the Lilies have been unable to get themselves out of trouble, with Frings managing just four points in his first six matches at the club. They are eight points from safety as the prospect of staying up slips further and further away. 

... the theme of inclusion will be very prominent at the Weser-Stadion for this match? People with disabilities will be in action during the match in different parts of the stadium under the motto “Together for inclusion”, doing things such as sitting in the commentator’s booth and taking care of the pitch at half-time. “This day of action will be a sign of inclusion, tolerance and the fight against discrimination,” said Werder’s president Dr. Hubertus Hess-Grunewald.
