Bavaria: FC Bayern decides the first round of the cup at Viktoria Köln

Cologne (dpa / lby) - Four and a half weeks after most of the first main round, record winner FC Bayern Munich is also entering the DFB Cup. In the last of 32 games, Bayern have to play third division team Viktoria Köln on Wednesday (8:46 p.m. / ARD and Sky). Trainer Julian Nagelsmann will rotate vigorously.

The champion's game was postponed, like that of defending champion RB Leipzig against Teutonia Ottensen, because the two faced each other in the Supercup on the actual cup weekend.

The people of Cologne have moved the game from the Höhenberg sports park to the large arena of the Bundesliga club 1. FC Köln. The stadium will be sold out with 50,000 spectators. Since the game is shown live on free TV and Bayern forego half of their income, the third division team takes in a considerable amount.
