Recent Form and Head-to-Head
Bayern Munich boasts an formidable record in the DFB-Pokal, having won their opening match in the competition for the last 30 consecutive seasons, a streak dating back to 1994. The Bavarian giants also maintain an impressive 32-game unbeaten run in domestic away fixtures across the Bundesliga, DFB-Pokal, and Supercup, with their last defeat on the road occurring in December 2024. Their star striker, Harry Kane, is in red-hot form, having found the net in each of his last six cup appearances. In their last 16 DFB-Pokal ties against 2. Bundesliga clubs, Bayern have consistently scored at least two goals.
VfL Osnabruck, on the other hand, will be looking to cause a major upset. Historically, clashes between these two teams in the DFB-Pokal have often been tight affairs. In 2004, Bayern needed a last-minute winner from Roy Makaay to secure a 3-2 victory against Osnabruck. Notably, VfL Osnabruck once stunned Bayern Munich with a 5-4 win in the Round of 16 during the 1978/79 season. However, more recently, Osnabruck has struggled against Bundesliga opposition in the cup, losing their last five such encounters.
