Göttingen Derby: SVG challenges Göttingen 05 in Kruger Park!
On Friday, October 28, 2025, the balls will finally roll again in the Krügerpark on Sandweg when the eagerly awaited derby between SVG Göttingen and Göttingen 05 takes place. Kick-off is at 2 p.m. and all preparations are in full swing. Thorsten Tunkel, SVG's sports director, ensures that everything runs smoothly. Organizers are expecting up to 2,000 spectators to attend, exceeding last year's previous attendance of 1,400.
Physical well-being is also taken care of: 500 rolls and 600 bratwursts have already been pre-ordered. To ensure security protection, a security service and the Johanniter will be on site. And just in case, there are even ten Dixi toilets available so that no one has to wait in line during the game.
An important moment for Göttingen 05
The game is not only a local derby, but also of great importance for Göttingen 05, who have their sights firmly set on promotion to the top league. The team is currently in third place in the state league and with a win could increase the pressure on the league leaders SSV Vorsfelde and MTV Gifhorn, who have already established a considerable lead. Transfermarkt.de shows that Göttingen 05 missed promotion by a hair's breadth in each of the last two seasons.
In the eleven games so far, Göttingen 05 have managed to show themselves defensively stable and have only conceded nine goals. This corresponds to the performance of SVG and Bovender SV, who are also in the top three defensive ranks in the league.
Top scorers on the rise
But the offensive is also impressive: Ismail from Göttingen 05 is the top scorer in the state league with ten goals and is causing a sensation. Together with other talented players like Petry from Kästorf and Rizzo from Bleckenstedt, who also scored ten goals, the derby could be an exciting duel in a class of its own. Other players from both squads such as Rachet from SVG or Herwig from Göttingen 05 can also provide valuable impetus with their five goals.
Not only those involved, but also the fans are looking forward to the derby and are hoping for a thrilling game full of emotions and exciting moments. It remains to be seen whether Göttingen 05 can take the first big step towards the top league at home in Krügerpark or whether SVG Göttingen can claim their own place in the city derby.
