VfB Stuttgart will face Hamburger SV in the relegation play-off for the last Bundesliga starting place for the 2023/24 season. VfB could be relegated for the third time in seven years, while HSV will finally want to return to the top flight after five years in the second division.
Both sides will be hoping for the return of injured players Fabian Bredlow and Dan-Axel Zagadou. Hamburg narrowly missed out on direct promotion against Sandhausen last Sunday only due to Heidenheim's last-minute victory.
