Borussia Dortmund form and stats

Borussia Dortmund have reached this DFB Pokal stage through battling and winning against Eintracht Braunschweig and MSV Duisburg. Last season, Borussia's DFB Pokal journey ended in the 3rd round.

When playing at home in the Bundesliga, Borussia Dortmund have managed 5 wins, 1 draw and suffered 3 defeats from 9 games.

Borussia's previous game was a Bundesliga match also played at home, ending 3-1 versus Augsburg. The home side are looking to build on that result. Heartbreak before that as Borussia lost 2-4 at Borussia M'gladbach's place.

It would be a shock if the hosts fail to win this game. Let's see how Borussia have performed as huge favourites like they are today: two games found in the database showing one Borussia Dortmund win, one draw and zero defeats.

The manager E. Terzic will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Freiburg in only four days.

Borussia can score goals in their home matches. After 9 league matches they have found the net 20 times. Borussia's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 12 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Paderborn form and stats

The traveling awayteam has defeated Wiedenbruck and Union Berlin in order to reach 3rd Round of DFB Pokal. Paderborn's mission in DFB Pokal last season failed in the 2nd round.

Paderborn have only collected 9 points from their away games in the 2. Bundesliga, after 2-3-5 (10 played).

It might be tough going out on the road again for Paderborn, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 1-3 versus Hamburger SV. Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Holstein Kiel in the 2. Bundesliga.

It's a bit worrying for Paderborn that their goalkeeper Leopold Zingerle made seven saves in the Hamburger SV game last time out, but still couldn't prevent the loss.

The visitors come into this game as huge outsiders. This role is not totally unknown to them, as they have played four away matches before with similar winning odds. These games have ended with one win, two draws and one defeat. zero games were lost by at least two goals margin.

The attacking power of Paderborn when travelling is not overwhelming with 9 goals scored from 10 league matches away. As opposed to that, Paderborn have seen the ball go into their own net 12 times on the road. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only -1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last eight matches): Borussia four wins, four draws and Paderborn zero victories. As for goals, six matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), two games had two or less.
