clear sailing for the Green Whites?
By: Jackson | March 11th, 2009Following the Green Whites draw to 1899 Hoffenheim last weekend they are well off-pace of a winning a spot in European competition through Bundesliga results. Over the next week the club faces an difficult hurdle as nestled within difficult domestic matches against Stuttgart and Dortmund they face Saint-Étienne in the UEFA Cup.
Weser-Stadion is the setting on Thursday evening for the Ligue 1’s visit in the UEFA Cup and with the exception of Mesut Özil, Thomas Schaaf has a full squad available to him. Recent absences Clemens Fritz, Christian Vander, Torsten Frings and Claudio Pizarro and are all ready to go.
While Saint-Étienne won this past weekend, of the round of sixteen, Werder probably received the best possible draw with the French club as they are locked in a relegation fight domestically and might consider the UEFA Cup less of a priority.
