Felix Agu - Could partially integrate this week Agu (groin) is eyeing a return to training this week, according to manager Daniel Thioune, per Deich Stube. "If things go optimally and we work well individually in the next two da...

Impact Agu is still battling his groin injury but appears to be in a decent spot heading into the week, already training individually. This will hopefully lead him to then join partial team training Thursday, although unlikely to play Sunday. The club will wait for him as an option to gain some more depth, only an option for three games since the end of September due to injuries.

Jovan Milosevic - Out Sunday Milosevic (back) is out for Sunday's match against Union Berlin.

Impact Milosevic was close to being an option after traveling with the team, but is still being rested, not an option due to his back injury. This comes after a start last outing, a bit of a rough turn for the forward, as he has only started in two of his eight appearances all season. He should then return to the lineup next week after his close call Sunday.

Jovan Milosevic - Likely available Sunday Milosevic (back) is likely going to be available for Sunday's clash against Union Berlin, according to coach Daniel Thioune. "Ideally, we'll take him with us on the bus and decide...

Impact Milosevic has been dealing with back issues throughout the week but appears to be trending in the right direction, as he is expected to travel with the squad and be an option for Sunday's clash against Union Berlin. That said, even if he is cleared to feature, a spot in the starting XI looks unlikely. That should open the door for Keke Maximilian Topp to step into the lineup and lead the attack from the opening whistle.

Olivier Deman - Returns to team training Deman (ankle) was spotted back in team training Wednesday, according to the club.

Impact Deman had been dealing with an ankle issue picked up during the match against Heidenheim, but it turned out to be minor as he returned to team training Wednesday. That is encouraging news for Bremen since he should be the preferred option over Isaac Schmidt on the left flank while Felix Agu (groin) remains sidelined.

Impact Milosevic buried a goal in Saturday's win against Heidenheim before being forced off with back problems. The striker is expected to be evaluated over the coming days after he was not spotted in team training Monday. Milosevic will hope to be available for Sunday's clash against Union Berlin since he started the last match and a potential absence would be a setback after scoring twice across his last two appearances, with Keke Maximilian Topp likely the preferred option to step into the front line if he ends up missing time.

Olivier Deman - Dealing with ankle injury Deman is dealing with an ankle injury and wasn't spotted in team training Monday, according to the club.

Impact Deman is dealing with an ankle injury he likely picked up in the last match against Heidenheim and he was not seen in team training Monday. That would be a tough blow for Bremen if the defender ends up missing time since Felix Agu (groin) is already sidelined for the time being. If both remain out for upcoming fixtures, the club could be forced to turn to third-choice option Isaac Schmidt on the left flank.

Since joining Werder Bremen on loan from VfB Stuttgart, Milosevic has scored three times across eight appearances (two starts).

Backhaus will be aiming for successive clean sheets for the first time in his career Sunday when Werder Bremen travel to the capital for a showdown with Union Berlin.
