The draw for the pre-quarterfinals of the 2013/14 German Cup (DFB Pokal) was held yesterday, but there aren’t really any big highlights or top class derbies in this round.
The draw was carried out in the ARD Sportschau. This time the draw was carried out by German national team coach Joachim Löw.
Triple winners Bayern Munich travel to Bavarian Bundesliga rivals FC Augsburg, while 2012 champions Borussia Dortmund have been drawn to face the only remaining 3.Liga side 1.FC Saarbrücken. Another interesting tie is between VfL Wolfsburg and FC Ingolstadt, in which VW-owned VfL Wolfsburg face FC Ingolstadt, who are owned by their subsidiary Audi.
The matches will be played on December 3/4, 2013.
