Sorry,forgot to say the dates
We're wishing to go on the 8th November (morning) and return either very late thurday (kick-off is at 9pm GMT+1) or very early Friday.
I found something on the DB website that looks good,but I'm not too sure whether it's helpful or not.

Flights are much cheaper than to go direct to Nurnberg (probably including trains as well) - €139 (£96.91) Rtn. (about half of that is tax and fuel ).
