Round two in the DFB-Pokal brings us an all-Bundesliga clash with RB Leipzig taking on St Pauli at Red Bull Arena on Tuesday evening. Die Roten Bullen are leading the top-flight standings at present, while Kiezkicker are 16th after eight matches. Let’s get into the match prediction.
RB Leipzig got their DFB-Pokal campaign started with a straightforward 4-1 victory on the road to lower-league opponents Rot-Weiss Essen back in round one in August.
Since then, Die Roten Bullen have been sensational in the top flight, still unbeaten with six wins and two draws to date, with their only defeats this season coming in the Champions League.
At home, Leipzig have played four domestic matches this season, winning three and drawing the other, while they have kept there clean sheets over the period.
Meanwhile, St Pauli’s first round in the DFB-Pokal was a testing one, as they needed a stoppage-time goal to force extra time against Regionalliga outfit Hallescher FC.
Kiezkicker now enter this match off the back of a goalless draw at home to Wolfsburg, which was their third consecutive match without victory following defeats to Mainz and Dortmund.
The visitors’ only win in the Bundesliga this season came on the road against Freiburg, while the other three they have played all ended in defeat.
