Europe's most exciting league revealed
There’s a remarkable race for survival unfolding in Germany's second division, with 14 of the 18 teams still at risk of being relegated with three match days remaining.
Just 10 points splits 16th-placed FC St. Pauli and fourth-placed Jahn Regensburg, with a stunning relegation battle involving 14 of 18 teams set to light up the last three weeks of the 2.Bundesliga.
Far away from the bright lights of Europe's top leagues - many of which are reaching their conclusions - an all-consuming battle awaits at both ends of the table in Germany's second division, with third place still up for grabs and two of the three relegation spots far from decided.
The uncertainty facing 77 per cent of the league is summed up by none more than VFL Bochum - the home of Socceroos star Robbie Kruse - which could still qualify for third place and a promotion play-off against the 16th-placed Bundesliga club, or finish in the bottom three and drop down a division.
Buckle up football fans, this is set to be a frenetic three weeks as clubs desperately avoid the dreaded drop.
