Below the top six, the league splits noticeably. SC Freiburg and Eintracht Frankfurt maintain a mid-table presence, while the bottom end features a congested fight to avoid relegation. Notably, VfL Wolfsburg, 1. FC Heidenheim, and FC St. Pauli struggled, each ending with fewer than 30 points and a negative goal difference north of -20. All in all, it was a season of clear dominance at the top but a scrappy, nervy affair down below.
