The quarter-finals in the DFB Cup are far apart. Two games will take place this week on Tuesday and Wednesday, the other two games will take place a week later.

There is a Bundesliga duel on Tuesday: runner-up Bayer 04 Leverkusen hosts FC St. Pauli. Both teams have already met in the league this season, with Bayer winning the duel at Millerntor in Hamburg 2-1.

Bayer Leverkusen had already had trouble twice on the way to the quarter-finals: After an effortless 4-0 win in the first round against fourth-tier SG Sonnenhof Großaspach, the Werkself had to go into extra time against SC Paderborn. In the third round there was a really tough challenge with Borussia Dortmund, which coach Kasper Hjulmand’s team mastered with a 1-0 win.

FC St. Pauli won two of their three DFB Cup games on penalties. At the start, the Kiezkickers had a hard time against Eintracht Norderstedt from the regional league, and progress against TSG Hoffenheim was only secured in a penalty shootout. In the third round, St. Pauli won 2-1 at league rivals Borussia Mönchengladbach.

The game between Bayer Leverkusen and FC St. Pauli will be broadcast live on free TV. ZDF shows the meeting between the two Bundesliga teams. Kick-off at the BayArena is at 8:45 p.m.

The second quarter-final takes place on Wednesday: Second division club Holstein Kiel welcomes Bundesliga club VfB Stuttgart in a north-south duel. While the storks are struggling in the second division, the situation for the Swabians is clearly improving: VfB has only lost one of its last eleven competitive games and is once again playing for the Champions League places.
