In the 2. Bundesliga, 1. FC Magdeburg prepared to face 1. FC Kaiserslautern, a team that entered the matchup with the league’s best defense, having conceded only one goal. Magdeburg faced defensive uncertainty following a recent loss to Hertha BSC that included a red card for center-back Tobias Müller.

On September 14, 1. FC Magdeburg defeated 1. FC Kaiserslautern 3-0, marking the first defeat of the season for Kaiserslautern. Magdeburg established an early lead with two goals within the first 16 minutes through Iyoha and Nollenberger. Kaiserslautern coach Torsten Lieberknecht described the match as a “bad day” and a deserved loss, noting that the early deficit disrupted the team's tactical approach despite strong running and duel statistics. Defender Jacob Rasmussen attributed the loss to collective responsibility rather than individual errors by new starters Simon Asta or Alex Murphy. Lieberknecht expressed confidence in maintaining squad morale, particularly among younger players.

Following this, 1. FC Kaiserslautern secured a 1-0 victory against Eintracht Braunschweig on September 18, with Erencan Yardimci scoring the decisive goal in the 73rd minute. Meanwhile, 1.
