Florian Kohfeldt will have no new headaches over selection given the lack of recent injuries to report. Aside from Kevin Möhwald and Martin Harnik, who have been confirmed as unavailable for a while, all the Green-Whites will be fit to play.

Sebastian Langkamp is also fit once again. “Basti was back in training today. He picked up a gash on his knee, so we gave him an extra day to let it heal”, explained Kohfeldt, who also has Claudio Pizarro in his plans. “Claudio will be in the squad”, clarified the Werder coach, who has brought in Johannes Eggestein as another option against a Worms side likely to defend deep.

Whether Pizarro makes an appearance, remains to be seen. “We’re quite amazed at how he coped with the intensive programme at the training camp and how great an impression he made. He showed against Villarreal that he’s able to play at a similar level as players who are subbed on later. So he’s earned his place in the squad”, Frank Baumann said about the 39-year-old Werder veteran.
