Regensburg take on the visitors Darmstadt in the round 1 match of German Bundesliga 2. The match will be played on Saturday, July 16th at Jahnstadion Regensburg (Regensburg).
Regensburg managed to avoid relegation last season. The "Red Pants" at the beginning of this century were constantly scurrying between divisions. Including, more than once, they fell out to the level of the 4th football league in Germany. Only in recent years has it been possible to more or less stabilize the situation. Having entered the Bundesliga 2 in 2017, the club manages to stay there. But at the same time, the results were constantly falling from year to year. The club started from 5th place in the first draw of this cycle. Then it was 8th, 12th, 14th and, finally, in the spring they finished 15th. Moreover, this was also saved by a powerful start, with 4 victories in a row and the only defeat in the first 12 rounds. But after January 16, they only managed to win twice. Will Selimbegovic, who spent his entire coaching career in the structure of the club, be able to deal with the causes of the problems and prevent their recurrence?

Darmstadt will try to take 1 or better 2 steps forward compared to 2021/2022. The "Lilies" not so long ago, in 2015-2017, played in the country's top division. They even at first, in the debut, took 14th place there, but then the next draw was a complete failure. Of course, they wanted to return to the Bundesliga 1, but there was not much chance. First, they finished twice in 10th place, then there was a rise to 5th, which was not enough, and this was followed by a rollback to 7th. But in the spring the struggle was stubborn - and it was a shame Darmstadt lost it. Werder, who rose directly, was ahead by 3 points, and Hamburg won the "minor bronze" due to additional indicators. As a result, the teams had equal points, 60 each. Well, it remains for the fans to believe that Lieberknecht's 2nd year in office will turn out better than the first.
Last season, the teams managed to play back in 2021. And they exchanged away victories, also with an identical score, 2-0 in favor of the visitors. Regensburg looked extremely weak in the spring. Of course, there was a lot of time to work on the mistakes. But still, we believe that the visitors will win again in this pair.
Prediction for the match: Darmstadt to win.
