Next Friday 2013/14 European Champions League is continuing with Round 4 and one of the games which attracts huge attention is one that be held in Sweden: Eslovs – Werder Bremen (November 21st 19h00 CET). German side was considered as one of favorites for two top spots in Group B but after three rounds Swedish champion and 2008 MECL winner Niederosterreich lead having 2-1 score each.

“We hope to continue our winning form we are at the half way stage and in a very good position. Not only are we top of the group but out of the three group matches remaining two of these will be played in Eslöv and we hope to take full advantage of this” stressed Eslovs` president Thomas ANDERSSON.

Swedish side was defeated 3:1 by “The Greens” in opening round played at Bremen. But after that Germans lost both their games while Eslov managed to beat Niederosterreich and 2013 MECL runner-up Chartres (twice 3:2). Robert SVENSSON was a hero in these clashes winning last three his games in a row.

“Friday we will play against Bremen at home and we are looking to reverse the first round result in our favour. XU Hui and Robert SVENSSON have been in extreme good form so far we are in a strong position to progress to the quarter final stage. However the group is very close so there is still everything to play for” explained Thomas ANDERSSON.
