Eintracht Braunschweig and VFB Stuttgart have met on five previous occasions since 2013. Stuttgart won three of those games, while two matches finished level.
Eintracht Braunschweig team overview
Eintracht Braunschweig turn their attention to DFB Pokal action after a 2:0 defeat against Karlsruhe last weekend. Goals from Fabian Schleusener and Roko Šimić condemned Eintracht to their first defeat of the season.
Strong on their own patch, high-scoring outcomes have been relatively frequent at this venue in this past year. Eintracht Braunschweig have seen over 2.5 goals in 4 of their last 6 home matches (competitive fixtures) while an average of 2.82 goals were scored in their 17 Bundesliga games played at Eintracht-Stadion.
Heiner Backhaus could make some changes to his first XI on Tuesday. Johan Arath Gomez and Levente Szabó are among those who could earn recalls to the starting selection.

VfB Stuttgart team overview
VFB turns their attention to the DFB Pokal after a disappointing 2:1 defeat against Union Berlin on Saturday. Ilyas Ansah's first-half double-strike condemned Stuttgart to an opening day reversal in Germany's capital.
High-scoring outcomes have been frequent for the visitors. VFB Stuttgart have seen over 2.5 goals in 9 of their last 11 matches (competitive fixtures)
Sebastian Hoeneß's side have been defensively vulnerable this year, and I expect the Bundesliga favourites to concede on Tuesday. The visitors have seen BTTS in each of their last four competitive fixtures, while they failed to keep a clean sheet in seven of their last nine matches.
A high-scoring away win could prove the best value bet on Tuesday. A minimum of three goals were scored in nine of Stuttgart's last ten victories.

Prediction
A high-scoring cup clash seems likely, with VFB frequently seeing over 2.5 goals scored in matches played this year.
I'm banking on a minimum of three goals scored at Eintracht-Stadion.
Three Reasons Why We Expect Over 2.5 Goals
- Eintracht Braunschweig have seen over 2.5 goals in 4 of their last 6 home matches (competitive fixtures)
- VFB Stuttgart have seen over 2.5 goals in 9 of their last 11 matches (competitive fixtures)
- VFB Stuttgart have seen over 2.5 goals in 3 of their last 5 matches against Eintracht Braunschweig
Main prediction -
Over 2.5 goals
