The first quarter-final of the DFB Cup is on Tuesday evening. FC St. Pauli welcomes Fortuna from Düsseldorf to the Millerntorstadion. In addition to the pay channel Sky, ZDF will also broadcast the duel between the second division teams.
The DFB Cup begins its hot phase on Tuesday and Wednesday: the last eight teams compete against each other in the quarter-finals. After the elimination of Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund and last year’s winner RB Leipzig, many lower-class teams are hoping for a place in the semi-finals.
In the next two English weeks there will be a quarter-final on Tuesday and Wednesday – all at 8.45 p.m. As in previous years, the pay TV channel “Sky” will broadcast all games live. In addition, three of the exciting encounters will also be shown on free TV.
