"I think we will be able to find the right solutions. We also saw that we won't come out on top if the game dissolves into an all-out attacking free-for-all. We need to stick to our plan, as we will only be able to record strong attacking moments if we maintain our shape and structure. On the other hand, we also need to defend well. Bayern are the favorites, but we feel comfortable with that and feel as though it will suit us."
"It will come down to defending well and aggressively in all areas of the pitch. At times, we will also need to defend deep, which doesn't always feel good. We need to play as a team, keep spaces tight and work against the ball as a unit. We want to play our football too though and carry a threat. The recent league game showed that we're capable of doing that."
Ole Werner says Bayern Munich can be hurt after RB Leipzig's 5-1 defeat three weeks earlier, noting positives from more than 80 minutes of good play. He stresses the need to play better, maintain shape and structure, and avoid chaotic attacking free-for-alls. Leipzig must defend well and aggressively across all areas, sometimes defending deep while keeping spaces tight and working as a unit. The team also wants to carry a threat and must convert chances in knockout competition. Werner accepts Bayern as favorites but emphasizes Leipzig has players capable of hurting them.
