Bundesliga 2: Eintracht Braunschweig's Slender Hope in Relegation Battle
Eintracht Braunschweig has sparked a glimmer of hope in their relegation battle in the 2. Bundesliga. With a victory against 1. FC Kaiserslautern in their final game of the year (Sky, 1.30 p.m.), the second-last-placed team can narrow the gap to FCK to a four-point chasm. When Daniel Scherning assumed the coaching position in November, Braunschweig were still 13 points adrift of the fellow promoted team from 2022.
"This game is incredibly important for us," declared Eintracht coach Daniel Scherning on Friday. "It's not hard to figure out what a victory would mean for us." He continued, "At no point have we made peace with our situation here. Instead, we've fought it every step of the way. We've managed to rekindle hope in the surrounding area."
Braunschweig is beset by a defensive conundrum, with their two-goal hero Fabio Kaufmann out due to a yellow card suspension. Maurice Multhaup, a prospective replacement, may also be absent due to muscular issues, further aggravating the team's predicament.
"Multi has some muscular problems," Scherning admitted. "There's still a question mark hanging over that."
