Fan Restrictions Announced for Hannover 96 vs. Eintracht Braunschweig Derby

Only 2,541 Eintracht Braunschweig fans will be allowed into Hannover's Heinz von Heiden Arena for the March match due to safety concerns.

The Hannover police have limited the number of Eintracht Braunschweig fans attending the upcoming derby to 2,541, citing safety concerns.
This restriction reduces the guest fan allocation to 60% of the designated seating capacity in the away section of the stadium.
The decision follows past incidents of violence and property damage during previous matches between the two rival teams.
Niedersachsen's Interior Minister Daniela Behrens has supported the measure, calling it appropriate given the history of disturbances at these derbies.
The exact date of the March match will be confirmed later this week by the Deutsche Fußball Liga.
