The squad will spend the night just across the border in Nenig, before travelling on to Saarland for the match, which kicks off at 5.30pm. and its Formula One weekend with a new circuit.
speaker_1HOST
The Spanish Grand Prix has moved from Barcelona to Madrid.
speaker_1HOST
The first free practice session is this afternoon.
Manuel VethHOST
But I think still it's kind of intriguing because obviously those 90 minutes against Schalke, there's the 45 minutes today against They have Elversberg up now, which is a top spiel on Sunday.
Manuel VethHOST
I mean, obviously Bayern Munich are going to the Saarland with the expectations to win that then.
Manuel VethHOST
But if they play like they did in the first half against Bodo and in periods against Schalke, it could be a huge party in the Saarland on Sunday.
Manuel VethHOST
My expectations are that Bayern are going to win that match.
Manuel VethHOST
13,000 people live in Elversbergspiesen.
Manuel VethHOST
Um, our club with just 14,000 members, um, you know a club that has gone there in a very organic kind of way while still having sort of like a big boss and in the holzer family kind of overseeing the operations um a club with where pathways and decision making is very small you know very few people make the actual decisions which was actually similar to the og story for bayern munich and um you know, from the Saarland, which hasn't had a Bundesliga team in a while either.
Manuel VethHOST
So, it's going to be a fascinating encounter.
Manuel VethHOST
My expectations are that Bayern Munich are going to win quite, easily.
AmandaHOST
And then we went to a wedding in Amsterdam and Utrecht, and, um, were home for four days.
AmandaHOST
[laughs] Uh, w- did laundry, repacked, and then my son had a sailing class at Bostalsee, which is here in, in Germany, in Saarland.
AmandaHOST
And, um, yeah, we did that for a week.
AmandaHOST
And so I felt like we were just kind of always on the move.
Thomas KaratHOST
Provinces, yeah.
Ulrike GuérotGUEST
Saarland and Bremen and Hamburg, but 2. million something.
Ulrike GuérotGUEST
So it's smaller than Berlin.
Ulrike GuérotGUEST
So now what we are seeing is an earthquake in one of the tiny, it's like a wall.
Manuel VethHOST
And, you know...
Manuel VethHOST
I think it is really nice to see that they, despite being such a small town club, although Locate and Weizmuller actually made this point when he said like, look, it might sound like we're from a village of 13,000 people, but the Saarland is actually quite small in area and there's a million people living here.
Manuel VethHOST
And I can say this because when I went to the Elvis Berg promotion relegation playoff game, I stayed in Saarbrücken, in downtown Saarbrücken, and it took me 15 minutes by car to get to the stadium.
Manuel VethHOST
So this is not like you're driving from one end of the Saarland to the other end, right? The biggest city, Saarbrücken, is a 10-minute drive away.
Manuel VethHOST
So, you know, it isn't like, yeah, it's a tiny village, but the Saarland is so tiny that, you know, really you are in the reach of a million people that can easily access Saarland.
Manuel VethHOST
the place that you're playing at.
Manuel VethHOST
I think that's really important to point out when you see these headlines about tiny Elversberg.
Manuel VethHOST
It's the same kind of story.
JuliHOST
Mal schauen, ob wir die beiden treffen oder nicht.
JuliHOST
Jo, mm, das Wochenende war dann eher unspektakulär und tatsächlich bin ich dann ja montags mit meinem Saarländer nach Bad Wildungen in den Wellnessurlaub gefahren.
JuliHOST
War eine entspannte Zeit.
JuliHOST
Das Hotel ist schön.
JuliHOST
Ich hab, glaub ich, noch nie so viel Rollatoren gesehen.
JuliHOST
Wir haben dann schon Wetten abgeschlossen, wie viel Rollatoren wir begegnen auf dem Weg von A nach B. Das hat dann dazu geführt, dass ich mich zu einer Wette verleiten ließ und ein Abendessen spendieren musste, weil an dem Abend haben wir gar keine Rollatoren gesehen.
JuliHOST
[lacht] Leider musste der Saarländer früher abreisen, weil ein Freund von ihm in der Woche vorher gestorben war und er natürlich bei der Beerdigung dabei sein wollte.
JuliHOST
Ich hab das dann zum Anlass genommen, zu Hause nicht zu verkürzen, sondern Tom zu fragen, ob wir uns noch mal treffen wollen.
Manuel VethHOST
Tough time for Saarbrücken fans.
Manuel VethHOST
You know, they used to be the big team in the Saarland, the big fish in the Saarland.
Manuel VethHOST
Of course, there were other teams that have made it to the Bundesliga from the Saarland, like Homburg.
Manuel VethHOST
But right now, they're still stuck in the Liga and they have to watch the...
Manuel VethHOST
Not crosstown rivals, but suburb of Saarbrücken play in the Bundesliga.
Manuel VethHOST
And now they are hosting FC Hansa Rostock, another former Bundesliga giant, or giant is maybe a word that takes it a bit too far, a team with Bundesliga past at the Ludwig Park Stadium in Saarbrücken.
Manuel VethHOST
It's a beautiful facility, by the way, if you have the chance to go check it out.
Manuel VethHOST
It is really worth a trip to the Saarland.
JuliHOST
Perfekt kriegen wir uns aber nicht hin und das ist eben der, den ich am häufigsten sehe.
JuliHOST
Ja, und dann habe ich ja noch meinen Saarländer, ein ganz solider, belastbarer Mensch.
JuliHOST
Der fängt mich immer auf, da kann ich mich auch dran festhalten.
JuliHOST
Und der hat die Besonderheit, dass wir wirklich auch zusammen in Urlaub fahren können, was ja auch nicht mit jedem geht.
