Our prediction for this DFB Pokal match:
A spot in the DFB Pokal quarter-finals will be at stake when Regensburg and Stuttgart go head to head at Jahnstadion Regensburg on Tuesday. Die Schwaben are still hit by injuries, with key players Leweling and Undav continuing to miss out, while trio Al Dakhil, Diehl, and Olivier are major doubts. In Undav’s absence, Bosnia and Herzegovina striker Ermedin Demirovic is widely expected to lead the line for the Bundesliga outfit.
The 2. Bundesliga team, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form. As Regensburg failed to find the net in the previous three league matches, we believe that there is a big value in betting on Sebastian Hoeness’ troops, who are desperate to win a silverware this term. Speaking of the home side, all Meyer, Saller, Schmidt, and Schonfelder are out of contention with injuries. In their last encounter in a competitive match Stuttgart defeated Regensburg 2-0.
