Two of Germany’s most attack-minded sides collide with a place in the semi-finals on the line, and with both teams carrying strong scoring trends, this promises to be one of the standout cup ties of the round.
The Bavarians are the competition’s record 20-time winners, but last lifted the trophy in 2020, while Leipzig arrive with a recent pedigree, having claimed the title in both 2022 and 2023.
Bayern Munich come into this fixture in excellent form. Vincent Kompany’s side have won four of their last six matches across all competitions, scoring 17 goals and conceding seven in that run.
Their most recent outing was a dominant 5-1 Bundesliga victory over Hoffenheim, which followed another emphatic 5-1 away win over Leipzig earlier this season.
Bayern currently sit top of the Bundesliga and remain one of the most potent attacking sides in Europe.
At home, Bayern have been especially ruthless. They have won three of their last four matches at the Allianz Arena, scoring 15 goals in those victories alone.
Six of their last eight home games in all competitions produced at least four goals, underlining their aggressive approach in familiar surroundings.
Harry Kane continues to lead the line brilliantly, while Luis Díaz, Michael Olise and Serge Gnabry provide relentless support from wide areas.
Team news is overwhelmingly positive for the hosts, who have a fully fit squad and no suspensions to contend with.
Kane is expected to start and boasts an outstanding record against Leipzig, while Joshua Kimmich’s control in midfield remains central to Bayern’s tempo and pressing game.
RB Leipzig travel to Munich looking to bounce back from recent inconsistencies. Ole Werner’s men have won three of their last six matches, scoring 10 goals and conceding nine during that period.
They returned to winning ways last weekend with a 2-1 away victory over Köln, keeping themselves firmly in the Bundesliga’s top-four race.
Leipzig’s away form has been respectable overall, suffering just three defeats on the road this season, though two of those losses came against Bayern, including a heavy 6-0 defeat in Munich.

Injuries remain a concern, with Castello Lukeba, Assan Ouedraogo, Sani Suleiman and Viggo Gebel all unavailable.
Despite those absences, players like Christoph Baumgartner, Yan Diomande, Antonio Nusa and David Raum continue to offer an attacking threat and creativity.
Head-to-head history strongly favours Bayern. The Bavarians are unbeaten in their last six meetings with Leipzig, winning four of those encounters.
The last four matches between these sides have each produced six goals per game, while every recent meeting has seen both teams score and comfortably clear the over 2.5 goals line.
Key Betting Pointers:
- 14 of Bayern’s last 17 matches produced over 3.5 goals
- Six of Bayern’s last eight home games saw four or more goals scored
- The last four head-to-head meetings produced six goals each
- Leipzig’s last four DFB Pokal matches featured at least four goals
With Bayern’s relentless attacking form, Leipzig’s defensive absences, and a long-standing trend of high-scoring meetings, this fixture strongly points toward goals. Expect an open, high-tempo cup tie.
Prediction: Over 3.5 Goals
