Police say eight officers were injured in clashes with fans before the German Cup match between Eintracht Frankfurt and Kaiserslautern.
The clubs' fans have a long history of animosity. Clashes between rival groups apparently left more people injured but police had no figures.
Police say they were attacked with stones, bottles and firecrackers and responded with batons. Eight people were arrested. One woman was seriously injured when she fell onto railway tracks.
Second-division Eintracht lost 1-0 in extra time Wednesday.
