SV Werder have collected just 10 points in the second half of the season thus far. It's about time that the Green-Whites increase their point total - preferably up to 13 points this weekend. You can judge for yourself if the statistics speak for or against Werder in the home match against VfL Wolfsburg on Saturday.

Did you know ...

... that Wolfsburg finished off their only German championship on the final game day of the 2008-09 season with a 5-1 victory against Bremen? The Bremen goal was scored by of all people Diego, who will play for Wolfsburg on Saturday.

... that Werder (14th place) are at the moment the worst northern German club behind Hamburg (8th), Hannover (10th) and Wolfsburg (13th)?
The last time Bremen were the fourth-best northern German club was 1970-71 when they finished behind Braunschweig, Hamburg and Hannover. In the all-time standings, though, the Green-Whites are in second place - so still the top club in the north.

... that it's high time that Werder pick up three points again? Bremen have not won any of their last eight matches (four draws, four defeats). The last victory came on the 21st game day with a 4-1 win in Stuttgart. Only last-placed Fürth (nine matches) are waiting longer for a victory.

... that Wolfsburg defender Naldo could play his 200th Bundesliga match against his former club? He played 173 Bundesliga matches (22 goals) for Bremen from 2005 to 2012. Diego played for Bremen from 2006 to 2009 (84 Bundesliga matches, 38 goals).

... that Klaus Allofs was the chairman of professional football for Werder from 1999 to 2012, was the management chairman starting in March 2009 and will return to Bremen's Weser Stadium for the first time in his new function with Wolfsburg? Allofs also played 78 Bundesliga matches (18 goals) as a player for Werder from 1990 to 1993 and won the 1992 European Cup Winners Cup.
