Stuttgart and Augsburg will put to the side their Bundesliga ambitions as they clash in the DFB Pokal on Tuesday. This match, hosted by Stuttgart, will be the first of the competition’s quarter-finals. We have a prediction below as both meet Bundesliga opposition for the first time.

After their 2-1 home loss to Borussia Monchengladbach, Stuttgart will seek some consolation here. That defeat was their third in as many outings and the pressure really is on for Die Schwaben.

The hosts have been disappointing defensively too, failing to keep a clean sheet in four straight games. Eight goals conceded in the last three matches describe their drop.

Augsburg needed penalties to book their place here, after a 2-2 draw at Karlsruhe. Samuel Essende has been their star in this competition, scoring in all three matches so far.

He has two goals in Augsburg’s latest three matches as well. Augsburg will look to tap on his form here as they seek to advance to the semis. The visitors have had a great run in their recent matches too.

Here they will be seeking a fifth undefeated outing. Three of their last four matches ended in wins and they kept clean sheets in two of the wins. In the most recent outing though, they needed a late equalizer in a 1-1 draw at St. Pauli.
