Bundesliga-Live Ticker for Matchday 27

Full-time: Bochum 2-3 Holstein Kiel

And that's it! Kiel hold on to their lead and pick up three extremely important points. With this victory, they leave the direct relegation spots and jump up to the relegation play-off position.

Full-time: Fortuna Düsseldorf 2-5 Hertha Berlin

Hertha celebrate a sensational away victory as they score five goals! After falling behind early, the visitors played themselves into a frenzy and netted on four occasions in the first half. Düsseldorf came back into it, but couldn't pose any further threat afterwards, and birthday boy Schuler put the final nail in the coffin.

The first 45 minutes are over and just before the half-time whistle, the hosts reward themselves for a strong first half. Arminia have shown little so far. After the break, play continues at de Kaiserlinde with a 1-0 lead for Elversberg.

Half-time: Paderborn 0-1 Dresden

Paderborn certainly won't give up yet, after all they want to maintain contact with the top positions. We'll be back shortly!

Paderborn also makes their presence felt!

Similar situation on the other side: Marino finds Curda with a cross, but he puts his shot over the bar.

TOGETHER! Stop Hate. Be a Team

The Bundesliga and Bundesliga 2 are getting behind diversity and social cohesion with the TOGETHER campaign, which will be visible across all fixtures on Matchday 27.

First good chance!

Ceka finds Sterner with a chip on the right side. He crosses the ball inside, where Vermeij doesn't connect cleanly with the ball. Nevertheless, it flies towards the goal and Seimen can get a hold of the ball for the first time.

Full-time: Hannover 1-0 Braunschweig

Hannover climb to third, for now at least, thanks to Maik Nawrocki's first-half goal. They arguably should have added to their lead in the closing stages, but the points are all that matter in the promotion race. Braunschweig stay three clear of the relegation zone, ahead of weekend games involving their fellow strugglers.

Karlsruher get to celebrate late thanks to Fukuda and Schleusener - although a draw would have been fair here. The home side reward themselves for their fighting spirit, especially in the second half, after not much went right in the first 45 minutes. For Fürth, it's a small blemish on their current run.

Half-time: Karlsruher 0-1 Fürth

Fürth are leading, but only because they have been very efficient and managed to take the lead with their first good move. The hosts have shown too little so far, although Fürth aren't exactly pushing for a second goal either. Much of the play is happening in midfield, with little in the way of goalmouth action to speak of. A win here would be extremely important for the away side in their relegation battle - the second half promises to be tense.

Petrik Sander on facing Münster

"Münster are unlikely to abandon certain aspects of their game. They're still a side who want to have a lot of possession. The table speaks for itself. The winners will gain a tremendous advantage."

Stefan Leitl on facing Düsseldorf

"At the end of the day, it's an enjoyable challenge to try and win another away match. Fortuna need the points, but so do we in order to finish as high as possible this season."

Markus Anfang on facing Hertha

"It's going to be a very difficult match, but we know we're strong at home. If we manage to approach the game with the same determination, power, energy and passion as in our previous home matches and get the fans on our side, we know we can beat Hertha."

Tim Walter on facing Bochum

"I'm trying to convince the lads that they're on the right track. They give their all in every training session and our fans are always behind us, which is a big positive. It's great to see what the players deliver week in, week out."

Uwe Rösler on facing Kiel

"It's going to be a high-intensity match. We're playing against one of the fastest teams in the league. We need to deliver our best performance of 2026 to win this match, I can guarantee that."

Florian Kohfeldt on facing Schalke

"We've been versatile this season. That is one of our greatest strengths. In attack, we can threaten from many different situations – through possession, set pieces, counter-attacks or with direct balls in behind the defensive line. Against Schalke, we're going to need to find a good balance again."

Michél Kniat on facing Elversberg

"We want to do the double over Elversberg. Earlier this season we had a clear game plan, were compact in defence and were clinical in transition. We need to do the same again to create opportunities in the final third."

Vincent Wagner on facing Bielefeld

"I think it will be a serious test of patience, where it will be about keeping our nerve - a war of attrition, in which we must ensure that we cover well against counter-attacks and find solutions against the opponent's style of play."

Torsten Lieberknecht on facing Nuremberg

"I believe that the Lautern past plays no role for Miroslav Klose before the match. He will prepare his team for the fixture like any other match. More important than his status at Kaiserslautern is the fact that he is a very good coach."

Thomas Stamm on facing Paderborn

"We have great respect for the work that has been done in Paderborn in recent years. Good work is being done week after week, with the clear conviction to carry out their own plan. We don't expect the opponents to be any different just because we had a big win recently."

Ralf Kettemann on facing Dresden

"Dresden played well in the first half of the season, for which they were not rewarded. Dynamo have played against some top teams and have not lost away from home in the second half of the season. Paderborn is a good place for that to change."

Christian Eichner on facing Greuther Fürth

"I expect a clear improvement in performance in all areas that a football match entails! I hope the team learns from the previous three matches and helps each other reach a state of intensity that we've had before."

Miron Muslić on facing Darmstadt

"They are a real force, and a team with great quality. We have that too though. We are experienced in growing precisely through such challenges."

Miroslav Klose on facing Lautern

"Our priority continues to be increasing the gap to the teams below us. We need to focus on the quality of our performance. It wasn't good in our last home match, which is why we want to remind our fans of the kind of football we are capable of playing."

Christian Titz on facing Braunschweig

"I know how the people here are eagerly anticipating the match. There will be a fantastic atmosphere. We want to deliver our best possible performance."

Heiko Vogel on facing Karlsruhe

"Karlsruhe have a very dangerous team. They have been performing below their potential. We need full focus and absolutely sharpened senses for the challenge."

Lars Kornetka on facing Hannover

"It was important for us that we played well in my first match against Düsseldorf. Now we go into this encounter with confidence against a good team. It's also clear that there will be a different atmosphere than at home matches or typical away matches. It will be an atmosphere that can carry us, with our fans there to support us loudly."
