Match preview

Will VfL Wolfsburg march on into the round of 16?

Die Wölfe won this competition for the very first time in 2015, starting their latest Pokal adventure with a last-gasp victory in July.

Omar Marmoush scoring the game’s only goal, coming in the 92nd minute, away to Carl Zeiss Jena.

In general, it’s been a poor season for Niko Kovač's team, sat 13th in the Bundesliga following Saturday’s 2-2 draw with Borussia Mönchengladbach.

So, can Eintracht Braunschweig cause an upset?

They were promoted started back up to the 2.Bundesliga last season, switching between tiers two and three consistently since 2017.

There are signs this pattern could end, with Michael Schiele’s team tenth, following a 2-0 weekend win over Magdeburg.

In Pokal terms, die Löwen sprung a big surprise in round one, ousting Hertha BSC on penalties after an astonishing 4-4 draw.

Will this tie at Eintracht-Stadion be just as enthralling?
