In the 1/32-finals fixture of the DFB Pokal Wolfsburg faced Elversberg and beat them with a 1-0 score. Thereby they went through to the next round of the tournament. Die Wolfe have been showing horrible performances in the Bundesliga recently and have been unable to win for almost six fixtures there in a row. Furthermore, the team of Bruno Labbadia has conceded a lot of goals in those six games. On the other hand, they have been showing quite good performances on the away fields. In one of their last away fixtures though they lost to Werder Bremen with a 0-2 score. In their last three matches overall Wolfsburg beat Fortuna Dusseldorf with a 3-0 score, lost to Bayern Munich with a 0-3 score and drew against Magdeburg with a 1-1 score in a friendly fixture.
Last DFB Pokal Hannover 96 and Wolfsburg faced each other in the 1/16-finals of the tournament exactly. Back then, Die Wolfe managed to beat Die Roten with a 1-0 score. Now the teams have to face each other in the cup once again. The upcoming fixture will most likely be similar to the one from last season in terms of the productivity. The head coaches of the teams will give a chance to their respective reserve players on Tuesday so there will be only a few goals scored in the upcoming game almost for sure.
Prediction for the match: Under 3.0 goals scored.
