This DFB Pokal cup tie pits teams from different league tiers against each other, and both sides' most recent matches ended with wins by very different margins. FC Bayern München have just won 3-1 in the league, while Magdeburg thrashed their opponents 6-1 at home in Bundesliga 2. FC Bayern München are still unbeaten in the league this season, and at home they lead at half-time in almost every match, but their defence still shows lapses, especially late in games when they concede a share of goals as high as 25% of all they let in. Magdeburg, meanwhile, come in with a spread of scorers and a hard-working attack. They scored 6 in their last match, but their defence also has spells where they let opponents break through. The expected pattern is that FC Bayern München will dominate possession and push high, while Magdeburg must defend compactly and wait for counter-attacking chances. If FC Bayern München score early, the game could open up and flow the home side's way, but if Magdeburg hold firm early and avoid conceding easily, it will become a more end-to-end contest, and there is still a chance the scoreline stays close.
