Will HSV make the long-awaited return to the Bundesliga in the fifth attempt? If the Hanseatic League wins today in the second division season finale in Sandhausen and Heidenheim drops feathers in the long-distance duel in Regensburg, things will go straight up. The possible detour via relegation is safe anyway. Information and background information in the news blog at NDR.de.
The second division season finale live from 3.30 p.m
To make a note of it, the second division showdown is live here:
HSV coach Walter: “We have to deliver”
About two hours until kick-off in Sandhausen. Incidentally, HSV coach Tim Walter does not want any information from Regensburg during the game. “We have to deliver and win our game. That’s what we can influence,” he said. “The game on the other pitch is uninteresting at first, we can look at the result after the final whistle.”
Season start in July or August?
Before the season finale is also before summer planning… If HSV manages to get promoted to the Bundesliga today or possibly in relegation, the new season for Hamburg would not start until August 18th to 21st. If the Hanseatic League remain in the second division, the first ball will roll in the lower house again on the last weekend in July.

NDR reporter Lars Levelow reports from Sandhausen
HSV without Jatta and Reis
HSV coach Tim Walter has to do without the suspended Bakery Jatta (yellow-red against Fürth) and Ludovit Reis (fifth yellow card) in Sandhausen.
“Hello, Sandhausen!”
See Sandhausen once and ….? Some HSV fans are already there.
Starting position clear: HSV needs a win
If the former Bundesliga Dino wins in the second division season finale in Sandhausen today and lets Heidenheim feathers, it goes straight up.
HSV legend Felix Magath is confident
Felix Magath, Hamburg’s European Cup hero from 40 years ago, relies on his HSV in the season finale. “The Heidenheimers already had several match balls that they left behind. And that’s what’s in the back of their minds,” says the former HSV professional and coach.
Fans believe in the HSV promotion
The fans radiated a lot of optimism at HSV’s final training session.
Today it applies to HSV
Pure excitement in the fight for promotion to the second division. Today from 3.30 p.m. it will be decided whether HSV or Heidenheim will make the direct ascent. For the loser of the long-distance duel “only” remains the relegation against Stuttgart. VfB coach Sebastian Hoeneß definitely believes in his team.
HSV captain Schonlau: “Do everything to seize the opportunity”
HSV captain Sebastian Schonlau is hopeful that it could go directly to the Bundesliga on Sunday. “We have a chance. And as long as it’s there, we’ll do everything we can to seize it,” said the defense chief in an interview on the club’s website. “We want to do our job and see if Heidenheim has lost feathers. If it works out on Sunday, we’ll be very happy. If it doesn’t work out, we’ll also be happy about two more games and the chances that come with them,” so gentle.
VfB Stuttgart possible relegation opponent
HSV wants to go straight up, but it can also result in relegation. In this case, opponents on June 1st and 5th would be VfB Stuttgart, who slipped to 16th place in the table after beating Hoffenheim 1-1 on the last Bundesliga matchday.
“It will be important for success in the relegation that we don’t see the additional games as a burden, but as a chance to stay up in the league,” said VfB sporting director Fabian Wohlgemuth. “We now have to accept the additional loop professionally. Then there is a good chance that we will continue to play in the Bundesliga.”

Metallica im People’s Park Stadium – that has consequences
On Sunday the metal band Metallica will play – for the second time after Friday – in the Volksparkstadion. The concert will probably last until 10:30 p.m. If the diamond club rises directly on the day, there will be no spontaneous celebration at the arena. If HSV has to go into relegation, a new lawn would be laid after the double concert for the second leg on June 5th.
