DFB-Pokal round of 16 pairings announced

Overview

The pairings for the 2026/27 DFB-Pokal round of 16 have been determined following a draw at the German Football Museum in Dortmund. The competition has reached a stage where only teams from the first and second Bundesliga remain, meaning no amateur or third-division clubs are left in the tournament. Because of this, the draw consisted of a single pot containing only first and second-division clubs.

Key matchups include Bundesliga leaders FC Bayern Munich facing second-division leaders Hertha BSC, and Eintracht Frankfurt hosting Borussia Dortmund. Other notable fixtures include Bayer Leverkusen vs. RB Leipzig and VfB Stuttgart vs. Dynamo Dresden. The remaining scheduled matches are:

• Borussia Mönchengladbach vs. SV Darmstadt 98 • 1. FC Kaiserslautern vs. SC Freiburg • Holstein Kiel vs. 1. FC Köln • VfL Bochum vs. FC Augsburg

The round of 16 matches are scheduled to take place on December 1 and 2, 2026. Due to Bundesliga scheduling, certain matches, such as Frankfurt vs. Dortmund, will be played on Wednesday to ensure players have sufficient rest. The tournament is set to progress to the quarter-finals in February, with the final scheduled for May 29, 2027, at the Olympiastadion in Berlin.
