1. FC Nürnberg – Eintracht Braunschweig

The clash at the Max-Morlock-Stadion pits second‑placed 1. FC Nürnberg, who sit on 16 points after five wins and a draw and boast a 16‑6 goal tally, against struggling Eintracht Braunschweig, languishing 15th with just four points from one win, one draw and four defeats and a narrow 12‑13 deficit. Nürnberg’s recent form suggests they will look to extend their unbeaten run, while Braunschweig will need to overturn a season‑long slide to avoid further drift towards the relegation zone. Their head‑to‑head record this campaign has yet to be decided, adding an extra layer of intrigue to a fixture that could see the table shift dramatically.
