Prediction: 4-2
Kaiserslautern
Buoyed by a hard-fought 2-1 win over Holstein Kiel, Stuttgart will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on Kaiserslautern in the German Cup last 32. Die Schwaben did well to put an end to their three-game winless run in the national championship, but they have big ambitions for the DFB Pokal as well. Anyhow, Sebastian Hoeness is expected to mix the squad due to Stuttgart’s tough fixture list. All Luca Raimund, Dan-Axel Zagadou, Justin Diehl, and Leonidas Stergiou remain in the recovery room, while the likes of Karazor, Hendriks, Rouault, Fuhrich, and Demirovic are in line for a recall to the starting XI.
The Red Devils, on the other hand, have been showing signs of improvement of late, beating both Paderborn (3-0) and Dusseldorf (4-3) in their last two league matches. As Kaiserslautern have improved offensively, a high-scoring affair is on the cards, but the hosts are closer to picking up all three points from the match. All Jan Gyamerah, Almamy Traore, Julian Niehues, and Hendrick Zuck miss out with injuries for the away team.
