India, May 19 -- SV Elversberg, after spending years in the 3rd and 4th divisions of German Football and, nearly missed out on a Bundesliga promotion in the 2024-25 season after losing 4-3 on aggregate to then Bundesliga side FC Heidenheim in the promotion playoffs. The Saarland-based club will now play in the 1st division of Germany after securing 62 points in the 2025-26 2. Bundesliga table, finishing 2nd.

A unique coincidence follows the promotion of Elversberg. The newly promoted team will play in the Bundesliga for the 2026-27 season; meanwhile, Heidenheim, who stopped their promotion in 2024-25 will play in the 2. Bundesliga following their relegation from the top flight.
