Here we reveal the two predicted sides as well as injury & suspension news for Wednesday’s DFB-Pokal match.
Hannover, following on from their previous result, will be hoping for more of the same after the 2-0 Bundesliga 2 success vs Holstein Kiel. It looks as if Hannover will probably employ a 4-2-3-1 formation with Ron-Robert Zieler, Sei Muroya, Marcel Franke, Julian Boerner, Niklas Hult, Mark Diemers, Gael Ondoua, Cedric Teuchert, Sebastian Kerk, Linton Maina and Maximilian Beier.
Hannover boss Christoph Dabrowski will be grateful not to have any fitness concerns at all before this game thanks to a fully injury-free squad ready to go.
Possible Hannover team to take on RB Leipzig
RB Leipzig go into this encounter following on from a 0-1 Bundesliga 1 win as they beat VfL Bochum in their last outing. It’s our belief that Leipzig seem most likely to elect for a 3-4-3 lineup, starting Peter Gulacsi, Mohamed Simakan, Willi Orban, Josko Gvardiol, Lukas Klostermann, Konrad Laimer, Kevin Kampl, Angelino, Daniel Olmo, Andre Silva and Christopher Nkunku.
With a fully healthy group available for selection, RB Leipzig boss Domenico Tedesco has no fitness concerns whatsoever ahead of this match.
