Team News

Freiburg
RBL
  • Yannik Keitel is on his way back from a broken toe, while Germany U21 international Kevin Schade remains doubtful with a stomach muscle injury.
  • Amadou Haidara is nearing a return from a knee injury, but Josko Gvardiol has a knee niggle, which is affecting him.

Prediction

  • One of these sides will lift the DFB Pokal for the first time.
  • After losing their last two league games, Freiburg finished sixth in the Bundesliga, two places behind Leipzig who squeezed into the Champions League next term.
  • This is Freiburg's first ever German Cup final, while Leipzig seek their first success in their third final, after losing the previous two to the big two of Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich.
  • Most of Germany will be cheering on unheralded Freiburg, but it's probably Leipzig who will prevail.

  • Auf geht's, RasenBallsport Leipzig!

  • Embarrassing that this final didn't get a Match Centre.

  • Leipzig was capable to lose against the lowly Rangers, so anything can happen here.

  • I don't think Leipzig to be favorite here. This is a cup final and chances are 50-50 for every team.
