Braunschweig take on the visitors Hertha Berlin in the 1/32-finals of German DFB Pokal. The match will be played on Sunday, July 31st at Eintracht-Stadion (Braunschweig).
Braunschweig have given the fans very different emotions in recent years. The Lions even have a championship title in their history - however, this was back in 1967. The actual history of the project is reminiscent of some kind of football "roller coaster". In 2008, the team played at the regional league level, but the 2013/2014 season managed to be participate, for one season, in the Bundesliga 1. Having failed to stay there, in 2018, Eintracht already fell into the 3rd division. From there it has already managed to return once, for a year, but last season again had to be spent at a lower level. Finally, having taken 2nd place there, the right to a new rise was again taken in the spring. Of course, the task is obvious, at least this time to gain a foothold at this level. Is it worth it to spend energy on the cup?

Hertha miraculously remained in the top division of the country. The “Old Lady” not so long ago claimed the status of a new big force in German football. But, having spent millions on newcomers, in the end, the project with considerable problems stayed in Bundesliga 1 in the spring. Felix Magath, urgently appointed head coach, could not raise the wards above 16th place. Moreover, the first butt match at home, in Berlin, was lost to Hamburg. But in return it turned out to win 2-0, and keep the "registration". It is noteworthy that the "firefighter" was not given a permanent contract - instead, Sandro Schwartz arrived at the coaching post from Dynamo Moscow. At the same time, Berstein, known as Hertha's ultras, was elected president. The roster has also changed dramatically: they sold Torunariga, Dilrosun, Mayer, Leven and a couple of other players, and also released Stark, Askasibar and Belfodil. Following Schwartz, Ejuke and Uremovich arrived from Russia, also took Kenny from Everton and Sunich from Birmingham.
In 2020, the clubs played - also in Braunschweig, and also as part of the cup. Then Eintracht won 5-4. Schwartz wants to start well in a new place. We risk betting that Hertha win on the road.
Prediction for the match: Hertha Berlin to win.
