Regarding Hamburg, yes I thought the same when it became annoying to see them fight against the relegation zone for several seasons and now they literally mirror the whole thing but fight vainly for the promotion into the 1. Bundesliga... Hamburg has meme potential because, I don't know the exact number, but I think they finished 4th like four or five times? They have so much potential and investors like many other clubs don't and yet they are only good at wasting and messing up things.

Sure the David vs. Goliath kind of game can be interesting, but still I prefer some great names in the final. It is exciting when Saarbrucken kicks out Bayern and now Frankfurt and, well, if I think about it maybe Saarbrucken would be fun to watch in the final. But I am afraid sometimes that the final is like 4-0 after 25 minutes and that is not that entertaining.

Hamburg deserves all of it.
Back in the 1st league all they had to show for for years was the fact that they never got relegated to the 2nd league. Thank god at some point that ended and their last resort was crushed, haha. I am such a hater.

Well yeah, Stuttgart vs Leverkusen would be really shitty for the competition. On the other hand, wouldn't it be funny to see a 2nd tier team go to the final and maybe even win the cup? 
Who would have though we wouldn't see Bayern, Dortmund and/or Leipzig in the final 8 this year. As the saying goes, anything can happen in the cup.

Both team have good performed in domestic league, Dortmund success get draw from bayern leverkusen and stuttgart are in the top third standings in domestic league. Excited if both team will play with main players and not rotation yet for getting one place to quarter final round. In bundesliga match, Stuttgart won over 2-1 from Dortmund and your predicting seems accurate with Stuttgart will win DFB Pokal match to get one ticket in quarter final round.
Borussia Mönchengladbach is first teams qualified to quarter final of DFB Pokal round after beating Wolfsburg last night 1-0 and match extend until extra time, crucial for Mönchengladbach scored on 120th minutes by Manu Kone, now waiting several DFB Pokal matches result have Leverkusen, Frankfurt and Hamburger SV.

Now my hope is that we won't see Stuttgart - Leverkusen in the next round. That would be a bummer for the competition and all the rounds to come.

But there we go, Hamburg made the next miracle happen for their fans and conceded two goals in the last minute of regular time and overtime, respectively! I am sure it must feel great to be a Hamburg fan.

The goal against them in minute 120' was a huge evil pill to swallow for them. Off to new adventures in the 2. Bundesliga

VfB Stuttgart Vs Borussia Dortmund

Today at the MHPArena, the match between Stuttgart and Borussia Dortmund in the round of 16 of the DFB-Pokal is set to be an exciting one. Both the teams have come in good form. Stuttgart will be looking to build on their recent win over Dortmund in the Bundesliga and continue their strong form at home. Dortmund, on the other hand, will be keen to avenge their previous defeat to Stuttgart and continue their good run in the DFB-Pokal. They will be favorites to win given Stuttgart's recent Bundesliga form and their strong performance against Dortmund in their last meeting. However, Dortmund are determined to turn the tables and secure a win. I predict that Stuttgart should be an exciting encounter with a narrow win ensuring the next round. My Prediction: Stuttgart 3-2 Borussia Dortmund.

I'm happy to see Kaiserslautern to perform so well in the cup this year.
At the beginning they also looked quite good in the 2nd league but for some reason they fell off the radar and even had to change their coach recently.

Anyway, it's always nice to see traditional clubs woth a long history to perform well.

Today hopefully Dortmund will advance as well so they stay alive in 2 cups over the winter.
Playing in Stuttgart though is next to Leverkusen the hardest team they could meet in this round so my confidence level is not so high. Dortmund though is always good for a surprise ( as well as for a disappointment  ) .

the first four teams qualified for the quarter-finals of the dfb cup today. there were no real surprises. three teams from the second bundesliga are still there.
and tomorrow there will definitely be a fourth team. hertha bsc berlin or hamburger sv. here again the results from tonight

If the "little" clubs play against the big ones, I dare to bet some money. Especially when the clubs from League 3 downwards will play against Bayern Munich. In general, it seems that Bayern Munich are no longer have much interest in the DFB Cup (like you wrote about the case with Kane). They won the DFB Cup the last time in 2020. After that they only reached the 2nd round three times and the quarter-finals once. So if one have generally bet against Bayern Munich the last 4 times they have got a good win each time.

The cup games in most top European countries, placing a bet on those games might be quite risky as most of these top teams prefer chasing their league title and European titles rather than a less competitive title hence, the rotation in the squad. Owing to these rotations, surprises could spur out and lead to them playing against your prediction on your bet slip. An example is Bayern Munich who were defeated by a team who sits 15 on the log in the 3rd Division of the German League, that’s crazy.

You can see Bayern’s pointman, Kane out because to the coach, he needed to keep fit and stay cool for the league and the UCL and that risk really paid off. I think the League game in Germany will be quite complicating especially for a team like Leverkusen who still wants to keep chasing the title. Probably there could be rotation but would it result to the losing the game?? Well Xabi Alonso would do best what suits his team and in his choice, make the fan’s happiness his priority.

In recent years I have always avoided placing bets on the cup games in each country because many of the big teams have a very complicated game schedule, so these big teams choose to rotate players when the cup starts, but when It's about being in the cup final, so these big teams play more seriously. I saw a lot of people commenting critically on Bayern's defeat, but when we look back a few months ago we can see that Bayern weren't doing well, they didn't have good results in terms of being that same team that scored a lot of goals, but they were doing well in the European champions league games, which in a way would make any fan think that the coach's position was guaranteed.

but what we saw in practice was that Bayern's management was much more concerned about the risk of not being able to win the Bundesliga and it didn't matter if the coach was doing well in the Champions League, so they fired the coach and I believe that Tuchel has We took this into consideration to the point of not risking Kane in this cup game and other good players didn't start playing, they entered the field during the game, probably to avoid injuries because Bayern in the next game will play against Dortmund, in a game which will be very important because currently Bayern are not at the top, they are in second place and a defeat or draw in this game against Dortmundo could put Bayern in a situation where they would see the title going away
