WSV Eyes Wins and Fitness Management as Injury Updates Roll In
Wuppertaler SV (WSV) is gearing up for their upcoming matches, with a focus on securing wins and managing player fitness. The team is currently fifth in the league and hopes to close the gap on leaders Fortuna Köln. Meanwhile, fans await the return of injured players, including winger Kadi Atmaca, whose comeback timeline remains uncertain.
WSV's sports director Gaetano Manno is optimistic about the team's prospects, expecting a 'beautiful match' under floodlights against Bocholt in the Niederrhein Cup. The team aims to secure more than three points from their matches against Lotte and Bocholt to climb the league table. However, the surface of the pitch may impact Atmaca's return, as Manno believes the winger is unlikely to make his comeback in the Niederrhein Cup match due to the artificial turf.
Defender Subaru Nishimura offers some positive news, with a potential return to the team in early November. The eighth-round Niederrhein Cup match against SpVg Schonnebeck has been moved to October 14 and will be played on the artificial turf pitch Schettersbusch. Despite these changes, WSV's squad has not suffered any further losses, maintaining their current strength in depth.
WSV looks ahead to their matches against Lotte and Bocholt, aiming to secure wins and close the gap on league leaders Fortuna Köln. The return of injured players, particularly Kadi Atmaca, remains a key focus, with fans eager to see the winger back in action. Meanwhile, the team prepares for their upcoming Niederrhein Cup match against SpVg Schonnebeck on the artificial turf pitch Schettersbusch.
