Spielvereinigung Fürth Holds Home Advantage for Tuesday Playoff
Tuesday evening in Fürth will host the decisive second leg of the promotion/relegation playoff.
The fixture will decide whether Spielvereinigung Fürth retains its current division or Essen ascends to the 2. Liga.
Spielvereinigung Fürth, as the higher‑class club, enjoys the right to play the second leg at home.
The arrangement gives the higher‑class side the advantage of hosting the concluding match.
The Kleeblatt will aim to preserve its league status in the tie.
Essen will seek promotion to the 2. Liga through the same encounter.
Home advantage is assigned because the club originates from the higher division.
Consequently the second leg takes place on the Kleeblatt’s own ground.
The Tuesday result will determine the final composition of the 2. Liga for the next season.
Both clubs will know their fate for the upcoming campaign.
