BundesligaThe last two rounds of the Schachbundesliga take place 28th and 29th March 2009. OSG Baden-Baden is top of the table and faces Solingen and Wattenscheid at home. The team from the Southwest of Germany needs only two points to celebrate his fourth title in a row.

The teams of Solingen, Tegernsee, Eppingen and Bremen are fighting for two qualification places for the European Club Cup. Tegernsee and Bremen seem to have the best chances thanks to their easier schedule. After Tegernsee withdrew his team for the next season and Dresden is far behind at the bottom of the league most likely Trier and Munich will be the two further relegated teams.

All games of the last two rounds – as all games throughout the whole season – will be covered live in the internet. You can follow the games - just click at one of the four venues - at the website of the Schachbundesliga: http://www.schachbundesliga.de.
