The hosts will be without Franck Ribery on Wednesday who picked up a thigh injury when excercising during the international break. But despite his absence, the 18-time DFB-Pokal champions are expected to cruise to an easy win here if their head to head record with Dirk Schuster’s men is anything to consider. But the visitors as expected to put up a strong fight as explained by their manager during a pre-match press conference:
#Schuster: "If @FCBayernEN really go for it, we will have to brace ourselves! But it's a knockout tie and anything can happen!" #FCBFCA
