EHC Red Bull Munich welcomes Pinguins Bremerhaven

Thursday, 30. November 2023 | EHC Red Bull Munich welcomes Pinguins Bremerhaven

Red Bulls welcome historically strong Penguins BremerhavenParkes before 400th PENNY DEL game// PREVIEWAfter the win against Mannheim, the Red Bulls want to go one better on Friday: Our team welcomes the Pinguins Bremerhaven (19:30 | LIVE in our blog). The visitors arrive in second place in the table. They are playing the best season in their DEL history.

"It's not surprising that Bremerhaven are up there. They play compactly as a team and have got even better in the last two or three years," says Yasin Ehliz. Our striker should know: He played 32 times against the Penguins in the German Ice Hockey League (25 scoring points).

Clear affair for Munich in the first duel

Although Ehliz himself came away empty-handed in the first duel of the season on matchday four, the Red Bulls still came out on top. Our 5:2 victory on the North Sea coast was also the fifth win in a row in a direct duel. Since then, however, the Penguins have been the most successful team in the league.

Bremerhaven near the top

Coach Thomas Popiesch's team has been in top form away from home in particular. Bremerhaven have won seven of their last eight away games. Only last Sunday at league leaders Straubing Tigers the Penguins were narrowly beaten (3:4 n. V.). If they had won the top game, they would be top of the table.

Latvian bulwark and Slovenian power

Bremerhaven are on 43 points. Fischtown have never had more points after 22 matchdays in the DEL. The Penguins have the third-best offense (73 goals) and the second-best defense (52 goals conceded) in the league. And this despite the fact that goalkeeper Maximilian Franzreb was injured in the first duel against our team. Because Kristers Gudlevskis is strong, the absence of Franzreb has no negative consequences.

The usual suspects shine in front of the opposing goal. Key player number one is still captain Jan Urbas. He leads the formation with his Slovenian compatriots Ziga Jeglic and Miha Verlic. In the internal scorer list, however, Urbas has to give way to Jeglic (25 points) and the offensively strong defender Phillip Bruggisser (21 points).

Ehliz: "When it's loud in the stadium, it pushes us extremely"

The Red Bulls know what to expect. After their 5:1 home win against Mannheim, they go into the clash with confidence. "We don't have to hide from anyone - no matter where we are in the table," says Andreas Eder.

Against Mannheim, our boys picked up the fans. The Oberwiesenfeld shook. Ehliz is also hoping for a cauldron on Friday: "When the fans come and cheer us on like that and it's so loud in the stadium, it gives us an extreme boost."

Trevor Parkes would certainly be delighted to receive active support. Our goalgetter is about to play his 400th DEL game. A note for all fans who want to be there: Due to a parallel event in the Olympiapark, the Park-Harfe is likely to be full. We therefore recommend arriving early - preferably by MVV.
