German fans are being warned to stay away and authorities have warned matches could be halted if too many supporters gather outside the grounds.


Under German league rules put in place to resume the season, the home side is responsible for ensuring fans do not try to approach the stadium to support their team from a distance.


After weeks of meticulous planning and mass testing of players and backroom staff, it would be a nightmare for the Bundesliga if the fans were to derail the fragile recovery attempt.


Another group feels the resumption of football during a pandemic, which has claimed 7,500 lives in Germany, shows how “sick” professional football has become.


“A continuation of the season would be sheer mockery of the rest of society,”

Ultras groups across Germany said in a joint statement last month.
“Professional football is sick enough and should remain in quarantine.”
