"Win, draw or lose – we approach every game the same way and always prepare as well as we can," said Alonso at the pre-match press conference on Friday afternoon. Asked about the run of three defeats, the Spaniard added: "It's the same pressure before every game in this phase of the season. Also because our aim is always the same: We want to win every game."„
That is the approach for the clash with VfB Stuttgart, currently 16 points behind the Werkself in eighth place. Alonso on Stuttgart: "We will face a very good opponent who we associate with tough, intensive and also emotional games. I like those sort of games and I'm expecting a similar one on Sunday. For me they are one of the best teams in Germany with a very good coach and a clear approach to their game."
In addition to Jeanuel Belocian, Martin Terrier and Florian Wirtz, now Mario Hermoso, Edmond Tapsoba and Nathan Tella are also ruled out of the game against VfB Stuttgart. With Hermoso, who suffered a shoulder injury in the second leg against Bayern Munich, "it's still not clear how bad the injury is. There are more tests that couldn't be made because he is still experiencing pain."
The match between the runners-up and the champions of last season will be broadcast live on DAZN and Werkself Radio. 3,200 fans are expected to get behind the Werkself in the away end at the MHP Arena in Stuttgart.

“Diaby! Diaby! Diaby!” was the cry around the BayArena as the Werkself danced in front of the north stand following their 4-0 win over Union Berlin. Captain Edmond Tapsoba gave his new (and old) teammate a friendly shove forward to take in the acclaim from the fans. The returning Frenchman was typically reserved in thanking the supporters but was clearly emotional about what was happening.
