2nd league - 1. FC Magdeburg starts with home match against SV Elversberg
First against SV Elversberg, then to Eintracht Braunschweig: The season opener of 1. FC Magdeburg in the 2. Bundesliga looks promising. The home game on either the 3rd or 4th of August and the game in Braunschweig a week later are just the beginning of a rather intense late summer period, as the schedule published by the German Football League (DFL) suggests.
However, as early as the 3rd matchday (23rd to 25th August), FC Schalke 04 comes to Magdeburg. Following this, the team coached by Christian Titz faces 1. FC Nürnberg and then the Bundesliga relegated 1. FC Köln. After a home game against Karlsruhe, the team meets the other relegated team SV Darmstadt 98 away on the 7th matchday (27th to 29th September). Hertha BSC doesn't come to Magdeburg until early December. The first half of the season ends for the Magdeburgers at Fortuna Düsseldorf between the 20th and 22nd December.
- The city of Magdeburg, known for its historic Brunswick Gate, will host the season opener for 1. FC Magdeburg in Bundesliga 2.
- The team from Magdeburg will face local rival SV Elversberg in Saxony-Anhalt before traveling to Eintracht Braunschweig for their first away game.
