Saw the EPL thread and wondered if there is enough interest to discuss the Bundesliga as well. I doubt it, but "juneberno".
So ... three Aufsteiger this year ...
Greuther Fürth topped the 2. Liga last year after a 4th the previous year. First shot at the big time (at least in the last 15 years).
Eintracht Frankfurt missed the top spot by 2 points and returns to the 1. Liga after a single year of relegation.
Fortuna Düßeldorf beat Hertha to join the 1. Liga after spending only 2 seasons there in their climb to the top rung.
Thoughts on which (if any) will stick? I'm thinking Hamburg, Freiburg and maybe Augsburg are vulnerable.
Meanwhile, any thoughts on whether Hertha, Köln, or Kaiserslautern have a chance to replicate Eintracht's feat and return to the 1. Liga for next year? I think Köln has a chance, but Hertha may struggle to be considered middle-of-the-pack.
