Overview
- St. Pauli vs. RB Leipzig and Werder Bremen vs. Hoffenheim were officially postponed after heavy snow and ice made their stadiums unsafe.
- St. Pauli reported difficulties clearing snow from the Millerntor roof and said postponement would ease pressure on emergency services and transport networks.
- Werder Bremen cited ice in concourses, blocked emergency exits, and travel risks as reasons their match could not proceed safely.
- The DFL will announce new dates, and RB Leipzig said purchased away tickets will remain valid for the rescheduled fixture.
- Union Berlin’s match against Mainz went ahead after extensive snow-clearing efforts by fans, as broader rail disruptions in northern Germany and separate postponements in the Netherlands and the UK underscored the severe weather’s reach.
