After prematurely securing the league, Werder Bremen and Kaiserslautern are both playing just to finish the season on a high note on Saturday 14 May 2011 at 3:30 p.m. at sold-out Fritz-Walter-Stadium. "We know everything we have experienced this season and therefore it's important that we have a strong finish. We can prove ourselves one more time in Kaiserslautern and want to give a good showing," said Thomas Schaaf at the press conference ahead of the match. And just like last week against Borussia Dortmund, Werder can count on the support of loud fans as 5,800 Green-Whites supporters will make the trip to Kaiserslautern.

Showdown from the first half of the season: Marko Marin vs. Alexander Bugera.

"Happy to finish the season"

Nonetheless, Werder's head coach admits he is relieved that the difficult season will be over on Saturday. "In some way of course you're happy to finish the season and to say now we have a break. And after the break you can start anew with new conditions and starting from scratch," said Schaaf.

Werder's opponents are also happy to have secured the league. "For us the whole season was a highlight because the first division is a dream. The team received a confirmation for their enormous effort. It was also a great story for the entire community," said coach Marco Kurz. "It's the first time in two years that we go into a game concentrated but also with a bit of relaxed training atmosphere. And we are happy about that and would like to close the season with the best result - a victory." Werder of course would have something against such a result as the Green-Whites would also like three points.
