Kaiserslautern hosts Fortuna Dusseldorf in the German DFB Pokal 1/8 finals. The match will be played on Tuesday, February 4th at Fritz Walter Stadion (Kaiserslautern)
The draw in the German Cup looks promising for Kaiserslautern. There are no top clubs on the horizon until the 1/2 finals. At the first two stages, the Devils calmly beat Mainz (2-0) and Nurnberg. The last match was won in the penalty shootout, after the enchanting 2-2 score in the regulation time. If Kaiser succeeds in beating Fortuna, there will be an opponent from the Verl/Union pair. Currently, the Reds do not play a leading role in the 3rd League of Germany, taking the 10th line in the standings. However, the men of Boris Schommers still play with double responsibility in the home arena, having lost in only out of 10 matches.

Fortune arrives in a completely distressed state, having lost in three away matches in a row. Moreover, the team scored only five points in away matches of this season, and it is currently located in the relegation zone. Thus, in my opinion, the cup game is more like a headache than the task of the season for the new coach, Uwe Rosler. By the way, the team left this tournament at the same stage last year.
After frankly failing work, Fortuna took drastic measures, fired the head coach and appointed the former striker of Man City. This change brought some positive to the team’s locker room, and they already managed to get a point in the home match with Eintracht. Will Uwe risk the regular players, given that Fortuna is to play very difficult matches against the Wolves and Borussia Monchengladbach? I think no. So, the home team will have another opportunity to demonstrate a concentrated game, as it did with Mainz and Nurnberg.
Prediction for the match: Kaiserslautern to win with 0.0 handicap
