Prediction: 3-0
Hansa Rostock
Leipzig will look to book their place in the German Cup quarter-finals when they take on Hansa Rostock at their Red Bull Arena on Wednesday evening. The Red Bulls have been showing signs of improvement of late, with the team beating both Mainz (4-1) and Stuttgart (2-0) in the previous two league fixtures, and it is no wonder the bookies see them as hot favourites to win the German Cup clash.
Both Haidara and Moriba are on international duty, but fit-again forward Dani Olmo should be recalled to the starting XI. The visitors, on the other hand, failed to impress in a 1-0 loss to Hannover, and seeing that Leipzig have turned their Red Bull Arena into a real fortress, home win should be considered. In their last meeting in a competitive match, back in 2014, Leipzig defeated Hansa 1-0.
