FCM tests against Schweinfurt – secret duel in the Volkspark Stadium!
1. FC Magdeburg (FCM) faces an exciting test match against 1. FC Schweinfurt 05 on Thursday. The duel will take place in the Volkspark Stadium in Gotha and will be played behind closed doors, so fans unfortunately cannot be there live. According to the club's official website, 1.fc-magdeburg.de, the Magdeburgers are using the opportunity to test their team and increase the training intensity before the next league game.
1. FC Schweinfurt 05, older than any other well-known number - first founded in 1905 - performed strongly last season. After an impressive season in which they finished first in the Regionalliga Bayern, they celebrated promotion to the 3rd division. This marks a return to professional football after the club last played in higher leagues in 2002. The team is led by Victor Kleinhenz, who has been in office since July 2024 and previously worked as U19 coach at FC Augsburg.
Players and form
The people of Schweinfurt can rely on some prominent players. Johannes Geis brings valuable experience with him, as he has 121 Bundesliga and 155 second division games under his belt. His colleague Manuel Wintzheimer can also look back on 112 appearances in the second division. The Schweinfurters have currently achieved two wins from the games they have played so far in the new season. The first win of the current season came on matchday 5 with a 3-2 win against FC Ingolstadt, followed by a 2-1 win against Hoffenheim II – the first home win this season. Despite these successes, the Schweinfurters are currently in 19th place in the 3rd league with six points.
There will be no live stream available for the duel in Gotha, which only increases the anticipation for the next live encounter and heats up the tension between the teams. The FCM fans hope that the team can also show the positive development that they have shown in preparation so far in the test match.
