The 2013–14 Eintracht Braunschweig season marks the club's first season in the Bundesliga in 28 years.[1]

Review and events

The draw for the first round of the 2013–14 DFB-Pokal happened on 15 June and paired Braunschweig with 2. Bundesliga team Arminia Bielefeld.[2]

The team finished the 2013–14 Bundesliga season in 18th place and was therefore relegated again after one season in the top-flight. Eintracht Braunschweig had spent most of the season on a relegation spot, but had a chance to stay in the league until the very last matchday. They were officially relegated on 10 May 2014 after a 1–3 loss at TSG 1899 Hoffenheim.
