"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.

It was a disappointing night in Athens: The Werkself lost 2-0 away to Olympiacos on Matchday 7 in the league phase of the 2025/26 UEFA Champions League campaign. In a match that was intense and fiery from the outset, the high-pressing home side made the better start and took the lead through Costinha on two minutes. Although the Werkself had a number of chances to equalise, the clinical Greek side increased the lead to 2-0 shortly before half-time (45+1’). In the second half, Leverkusen once again gave their all and showed total commitment but, despite their best efforts, the Black and Reds were unable to break down the Olympiacos defence on the night.
