Kaiserslautern - promotion, relegation or relegation: 1. FC Kaiserslautern and Dynamo Dresden are fighting tonight in the first leg of the relegation for eligibility for the 2nd Bundesliga.

In addition to the sporting explosiveness, there are several million euros at stake.

There is an alarm mood around the Betzenberg.

High risk game, hellish atmosphere, fight for millions - the betze will burn.

The four-time German against the eight-time East German soccer champion, a high-risk game, a newly committed against an ailing coach - and all "uffm Betze", as the people of Palatinate say.

Almost 50,000 fans are expected on Friday (8.30 p.m./here the relegation first leg is broadcast live on TV and stream) for the highly explosive first relegation game between third-division third 1. FC Kaiserslautern and second-division third-bottom Dynamo Dresden.

Relegation of the 2nd Bundesliga: Kaiserslautern against Dresden in the live ticker – there is a risk of riots

"We have to stay cool and switch on our brains," warned the new FCK coach Dirk Schuster in view of the cauldron at the Fritz-Walter-Stadion on the legendary Betzenberg.

The game has long been sold out with 46,895 spectators.

Capacity is limited due to a buffer zone on the east stand between the two groups of fans.

The police have been alerted and are on the move with a large contingent: in 2013 there were serious riots when the two football clubs met.

"The relationship between the two fan camps is tense," the West Palatinate police headquarters in charge told SID.

"Conflicts cannot be ruled out, criminal offenses will not be tolerated." The city administration set up a "glass-free zone" and issued an alcohol ban.

Around 5,000 fans are expected from Dresden, the second leg is on Tuesday (all dates, teams, rules for relegation at a glance).

Kaiserslautern vs. Dresden in the live ticker: FCK changes coaches shortly before relegation to the 2nd Bundesliga

Kaiserslautern under Marco Antwerpen messed up direct promotion with three defeats at the end of the season and the traditional club quickly changed coaches.

Dirk Schuster came enthusiastically after a one-year break since leaving FC Erzgebirge Aue.

Kaiserslautern vs. Dresden in the live ticker: who will win the race in the relegation for the 2nd Bundesliga?

In contrast to Antwerp, Schuster's Dresden colleague Guerino Capretti was able to save his job in the relegation: the German-Italian has not won any of his ten games since he started at Dynamo in early March.

In Dresden, his commitment as the successor to Alexander Schmidt was viewed with suspicion, as the 40-year-old had previously only managed lower-league clubs.
