DFB Cup showdown: Greuther Fürth welcomes Kaiserslautern to the sports park!

The cup week is entering the next round, and today there is an exciting duel between two old rivals at the Ronhof sports park in Fürth. At 6:00 p.m. SpVgg Greuther Fürth meets 1. FC Kaiserslautern. Both teams have already confidently prevailed in the first round of the 2025/26 DFB Cup - Greuther Fürth clearly won 2-0 against Blau-Weiß Lohne, while the “Red Devils” from Kaiserslautern put together an impressive 7-0 win against RSV Eintracht. Here you can prepare for a real spectacle!

But what do the two teams look like today? Greuther Fürth is looked after by manager Thomas Kleine and relies on a 4-4-2 formation. S. Pruerock is in goal, while the defense consists of D. Abrangao, R. Münz, P. Ziereis and L. Reich. M. Olesen and M. Dietz as well as captain F. Klaus, N. Futkeu and the dangerous striker B. Hrgota, who has several goals in his sights, provide the offensive spirit. The substitutes' bench is also well-staffed, with players like P. Boevink and J. Consbruch, who can certainly become important reinforcements.

The guests from Kaiserslautern

Torsten Lieberknecht is in charge of the guests from Kaiserslautern. The formation is 3-4-2-1 and S. Simoni is in goal. The defense is supported by L. Robinson, L. Sirch and M. Gyamfi. The midfield around S. Şahin and P. Joly is also promising, while captain M. Ritter and the attackers N. Skyttä and F. Alidou are ready to take advantage of every mistake the Fürth team makes. Here too, with players like D. Abiama and J. Elvedi on the bench, there are a lot of alternatives that can change the dynamics of the game.
