LatestHannover reached this stage of the competition thanks to a 3-0 victory at fifth-tier side TSV Schott Mainz in the first round at the end of July. They have blown somewhat hot and cold since then in Bundesliga 2, although Saturday's 2-0 triumph over Arminia Bielefeld kept them in the running for promotion, now just seven points behind leaders Darmstadt.

They are a force to be reckoned with on home soil though, winning four and drawing two at the Heinz von Heiden-Arena this term, with the solitary blot a last-minute defeat by a strong Hamburg side. Zieler, a 2014 World Cup winner with Germany, is set to captain the side once more. Strikers Cedric Teuchert and Havard Nielsen - both on target against Bielefeld at the weekend - likewise have plenty of top-flight experience, although the former went off with a muscular problem at the weekend. Dortmund saw off 1860 Munich 3-0 in the first round, with Donyell Malen, Bellingham and Karim Adeyemi all on target.

Edin Terzic previously led his hometown club to DFB Cup glory in his previously temporary tenure at the back of the 2020/21 campaign and will be hoping to do so again this term. The Dortmund coach may not, however, have Anthony Modeste at his disposal after the Frenchman missed the 2-0 loss at Union Berlin on Sunday, with Youssoufa Moukoko poised to lead the line. Gio Reyna returned from injury against Sevilla in Europe last week, while captain Marco Reus made his comeback on Sunday.
