Jena vs. Lok Leipzig Set for Top-Spot Clash After Safety Appeals

Calls for a trouble-free night follow a 50-minute pause at Jena's previous home match caused by pyrotechnics blocking emergency exits.

Overview

  • The Regionalliga Nordost leaders travel Wednesday for a 19:00 kickoff at Ernst-Abbe-Sportfeld in the fixture’s 103rd edition, shown live by SPORT IM OSTEN.
  • Lok Leipzig arrive unbeaten on 25 points from nine matches with an 8-1-0 record and a 19:4 goal difference.
  • FC Carl Zeiss Jena sit on 22 points and have won all four home games this season without conceding.
  • Away allocation of 800 tickets for Lok is sold out, and Jena Südkurve groups say they purchased about 200 additional seats across home sections for Lok fans to press against guest-block limits.
  • Lok coach Jochen Seitz asked for a normal, incident-free match, while Jena’s Volkan Uluc welcomed the challenge and cautioned that turnovers will be punished.
