Kickoff of the Regional League Season
The 2025/26 Regionalliga Südwest season is set to commence this weekend, with some exciting matchups on the horizon. One of the opening games sees TSV Steinbach Haiger take on Eintracht Trier at home.
Steinbach Haiger, going into its eleventh season in the Regionalliga, has momentum following a 1:0 victory against third-division side Wehen Wiesbaden in a pre-season test match. This win bodes well for the team as they prepare to face Eintracht Trier in their first official match of the new season.
Meanwhile, SG Barockstadt Fulda-Lehnerz will face Stuttgart Kickers in their opening game. This match will serve as a benchmark for Barockstadt, as Stuttgart Kickers are expected to be tough opponents. Interestingly, Stuttgart Kickers were the training ground for Jamal Musiala, a rising star in the world of football, before he moved on to Bayern Munich.
Elsewhere, FC 08 Homburg will host KSV Hessen Kassel in the first game of the season. KSV Hessen Kassel has strengthened their squad with the addition of Zvonimir Plavcic as a new striker and Jakob Kuntze on loan from Paderborn. These signings are part of KSV Hessen Kassel's aim for stability after a strong second half of the previous season, which saw them finish in ninth place.
FSV Frankfurt will start their campaign against SV Sandhausen on Friday at 7 p.m. FSV Frankfurt, who are among the top favorites for promotion, will be looking to capitalize on the fact that SV Sandhausen is a third-division relegated team. Kristjan Glibo has taken over as coach of Kickers Offenbach, who finished second in the previous season and aim to challenge for promotion once again. Kickers Offenbach will play away at Bahlinger SC on Saturday.
It's worth noting that the exact opponents and kick-off dates for each Hessian club in the Regionalliga Südwest have not been confirmed yet. However, once the official schedules are released, checking the official Regionalliga Südwest website, individual club websites, or reliable sports news portals is advised for the most accurate and up-to-date information.
