Match preview
Will RB Leipzig advance, as they seek to retain their DFB-Pokal title?
Back in May, die Roten Bullen beat Freiburg on penalties in Berlin, thereby capturing the first major trophy of their admittedly short career.
So far this season, Leipzig have eased through to the round of 16, hammering Teutonia Ottensen 8-0 and then Hamburger SV 4-0.
Meanwhile, Marco Rose’s team are in terrific form in the Bundesliga, unbeaten in 12 matches, following Friday night’s 2-1 victory over Stuttgart.
Dominik Szoboszlai with a brace in that one, a victory that leaves Leipzig third, just two points below leaders Bayern Munich.
So, the holders certainly come into this tie as favourites.
In fact, die Kraichgauer have only won once in the Bundesliga since 10 September, and this was against a general hopeless Schalke.
In the Pokal, André Breitenreiter’s team have so far eliminated Rödinghausen and the aforementioned Schalke, but this’ll be a significantly tougher assignment.
A home win seems likely at Red Bull Arena.
