Bayern Munich
The hosts come into this game having celebrated Carlo Ancelotti's 1000th game in charge in the best way possible. Bayern continued their excellent record against Hamburg, as they crushed die Rothosen 8-0 and will be fancying their chances against Schalke. There will be even more added incentive as Schalke managed to draw them 1-1 at this same ground last month, and so far, Bayern have yet to concede a goal in the DFB Pokal. In fact, the last goal they conceded at home was against Arsenal, and even that was nothing but a consolation for the Gunners.
13 goals in just two home games across all competitions, plus an undefeated record in 26 DFB Pokal games. Do Schalke have any chance at getting anything from this fixture?
Schalke
Meanwhile, Schalke earned a 1-1 draw with Hoffenheim. It marked the second stalemate in a row for die Königsblauen, but given the fact that they managed the same score against Bayern, the visitors will be hoping to have the same result. Interestingly, the last time they defeated die Roten at this ground was nearly exactly six years ago. On March 2, 2011, they beat the Bavarians 1-0 in DFB Pokal and having drawn their upcoming hosts recently, they will be looking to do the same later today. Bayern struggled against Wolfsburg and needed a late goal to settle the tie.
Interestingly, the last time Schalke beat Bayern at the Allianz Arena, they made it to the final, which they won 5-0. Can they take one step closer towards what would be their first final appearance in seven years?
