Preliminary report: TSV 1860 Munich – 1. FC Saarbrücken

Munich - TSV 1860 Munich against 1. FC Saarbrücken is a real promotion final - also because of Türgkücü Munich.

The insolvent club has thrown the promotion race for the second Bundesliga upside down: because all of the failed club's games have been taken out of the standings, everything is suddenly different in the table.

In the sold-out Grünwalder Stadion, with only seven games left, a big beneficiary and a big loser of this unusual constellation meet.

Saarbrücken had won both games against Türkgücü, the lions only got one point.

In fact, Sixty made up five points on the Saarlanders.

While Saarbrücken resisted the decision, Löwen trainer Michael Köllner sees things pragmatically: "You can't blame us for that, it was a legal decision." Of course, the guests see it differently: "It feels like cheating when a sporting result is no longer worth anything,” said coach Uwe Koschinat.

"I think the explosiveness is more due to the relegation of 2018," says the lion coach.

At that time, the TSV prevailed.

Köllner continued: "Both teams will try everything in this game to prove their ambitions." However, that did not work in the respective state cup, because both TSV and FCS were eliminated by a regional league team.

Köllner predicts a hot fight: "Saarbrücken will challenge us in the red zone."

In the match in snowy Munich, only the league and the dream of promotion counts for both of them.

But Köllner has to do without many players: Keanu Staude, Daniel Wein, Marius Willsch, Tim Linsbichler, Lorenz Knöferl, Marco Mannhardt, Marco Hiller and Phillipp Steinhart are all out.

A deployment of Stephan Salger is also questionable.
