SV Werder Bremen Rivalries

Rivalries have shaped much of Werder Bremen's history. The rivalry with Hamburger SV is the fiercest: the Nordderby. The derby is about football, but also about the historical rivalry between the two cities of northern Germany.

SV Werder Bremen Derby/Derbies

The Nordderby has tremendous cultural and sporting importance. There has been a rivalry between Bremen and Hamburg since the times of the Hanseatic League, and this rivalry spilled into the world of football. This rivalry became bitterer than it had been before 1982, when a Werder supporter tragically lost his life in clashes with supporters of Hamburg SV. The matches have been heavily contested, leading to extreme passion and hatred for the matches, both on and off the pitch.

Besides the Nordderby, Werder Bremen also shares a rivalry with Bayern Munich, especially from the 1980s and 1990s when both clubs were competing for Bundesliga titles. Despite the dominance of Bayern at that time and the overall dominance of Bayern today, Werder supporters still hold tight to the matches they won against Bayern in that period.
