DFB-Pokal: Where to watch BVB v Leverkusen live on TV and stream | OneFootball

On Tuesday evening, Borussia Dortmund will face Bayer Leverkusen once again in the DFB-Pokal Round of 16. Find out where the match will be broadcast live on TV and stream here at BVBWLD.

Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen are meeting this evening for the second time in three days. After BVB's 2-1 Bundesliga victory at the BayArena, the DFB-Pokal Round of 16 awaits – arguably the biggest highlight of this round. The match will be played at Signal Iduna Park, with kickoff at 9:00 PM.

Dortmund arrives with momentum: They secured a 2-1 away win in Leverkusen over the weekend in the Bundesliga, decided by headers from Aaron Anselmino and Karim Adeyemi. Their path in the cup has been less convincing: A late Guirassy goal saved a 1-0 win against Rot-Weiss Essen in the first round, and Dortmund had to go to a penalty shootout (4-2) in Frankfurt in the second round.

Leverkusen, on the other hand, recently failed to earn points against Dortmund in the league, despite the Werkself being unlucky with several shots hitting the woodwork in the final phase. In the cup, Leverkusen started with a clear 4-0 win against Großaspach but struggled significantly more in the second round against second-division Paderborn, only prevailing 4-2 in extra time.

Remarkably, this is the first direct duel between the two clubs in the DFB-Pokal. Leverkusen has already won the competition twice – most recently two years ago.
