With a win against Slovakia, Slovenia would still be in the race to stay in the top division. However, the team with 14 ICE-Cracks in its selection has to admit defeat in the first deciding match with 0:1 against Slovakia. Thus Slovenia remains winless in the top division and the relegation is sealed.

It is also already clear that a second ICE nation besides Slovenia will have to leave the top division. After the Hungarian national team was defeated 2:7 by Germany on Sunday, the showdown between Austria and Hungary against relegation will take place on Monday evening at 7:20 pm (LIVE on ORF Sport Plus).
