Impact Milosevic's back post header catalyzed the Werder Bremen victory Saturday as they eased past Heidenheim with a 2-0 win. Before being removed as precautionary measure in the 69th minute, the forward had rattled off two shot attempts and scored in his second successive appearance (one start). Since joining Werder Bremen on loan from VfB Stuttgart, Milosevic has scored three times across eight appearances (two starts).

Amos Pieper - Still in rehab, won't train Pieper (knee) is still in rehabilitation and isn't expected to train this week, Sporting Director Peter Niemeyer said to the media, according to BILD. "Amos is still in rehabilitat...

Impact Pieper still has ground to cover before rejoining full team training, as the defender remains in the rehab phase of his recovery from a knee injury that has already sidelined him for the last five matches. A return isn't imminent, with several more weeks likely on the shelf and no expectation of him getting back on the training pitch this week. That's a tough hit for Bremen, considering he's been a steady starter all season and depth along the back line is looking stretched, so until he's cleared, Marco Friedl and Niklas Stark are set to shoulder heavier minutes, while Abdoul-Karim Coulibaly (thigh) will also factor into the rotation once he's fully past his issue.

Jovan Milosevic - Scores off bench Milosevic scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal) in Sunday's 2-1 defeat to FC St. Pauli. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 76th minute.

Impact Milosevic pulled Bremen level just past the hour mark, cashing in during the club's strongest stretch of the match right after they went down. His finish flipped the momentum in what felt like a relegation six-pointer and gave the Green-White real belief they could seize control. St. Pauli answered with the winner eight minutes later, turning his equalizer into a brief spark rather than a turning point. The goal stands as Milosevic's second of the season through seven appearances.

Mio Backhaus - Concedes two in loss Backhaus registered two saves and allowed two goals in Sunday's 2-1 loss versus FC St. Pauli.

Impact Backhaus held his own in a sluggish first half, but one costly mistake flipped the script after the break. In the 55th minute, he misjudged what looked like a routine ball into the box, allowing Hauke Wahl's header to sneak in for the opener and completely shift the momentum. Bremen answered quickly through Jovan Milosevic, but that error ultimately stood as the decisive moment in the 2-1 loss. He finished with two saves on the night, yet it wasn't enough to salvage a point at St. Pauli, and he'll aim for a sharper, more commanding performance in Saturday's matchup against Heidenheim.

Felix Agu - Suffers adductor injury Agu (adductor) suffered an injury in the pregame warmup ahead of Sunday's 2-1 loss against St. Pauli, according to Deichstube.

Impact Agu was lined up to start in Sunday's matchup against St. Pauli, but the left-back picked up an adductor injury during the pregame warmup and was scratched from the squad. It's a tough break for Bremen, especially with Agu just coming off a long-term ankle injury and projected to reclaim his spot as the clear-cut starter on the left side when fully fit. Until he's back at full strength, Isaac Schmidt and Olivier Deman stand as the two leading candidates to step in and handle duties on that flank.

Impact Bittencourt has battled through multiple injury setbacks this season and is once again a question mark, but he returned to full team training this week and should be in the mix for Sunday's showdown against St. Pauli after avoiding the injury report. The veteran midfielder has mostly operated as a depth piece this year, coming off the bench to provide energy and control in the middle of the park. Once he is fully up to speed, he is expected to slide back into that reserve role rather than push for a starting spot.
