Elsewhere, Borussia Dortmund host Werder Bremen and Cologne welcome Union Berlin. Hamburger SV face Eintracht Frankfurt, with Bundesliga newcomers SC Paderborn at home to VfB Stuttgart in the remaining top-flight pairing.

Three clubs from below the top two divisions remain, including Regionalliga SSV Jeddeloh II, who stunned Heidenheim 5-2 in round one and now host Hertha BSC. Rot-Weiss Essen face RB Leipzig, with SG Sonnenhof Großaspach at home to FC Augsburg.

The second round will be played on October 27 and 28, with kick-off times to be confirmed.
