The hosts are currently embroiled in a relegation battle in the second tier, whereas Dusseldorf are looking to hunt down the top three as they seek promotion this season. Since relegation from the Bundesliga in the 2018-19 campaign, Nuremberg have never looked like returning to the top flight of German football - to the massive disappointment of their loyal supporters. Nuremberg have home advantage in this last-16 tie but have been woeful in front of their home faithful in Bundesliga 2 this season, winning just three of their nine home matches. I expect them to at least draw though.

东道主目前正陷入第二梯队的保级战，而杜塞尔多夫则希望在本赛季寻求升级的过程中追赶前三名。自2018-19赛季从德甲降级以来，纽伦堡队似乎从未重返德国足球的顶级联赛，这让他们忠实的支持者感到非常失望。纽伦堡在这场16强比赛中拥有主场优势，但在本赛季的德甲联赛中，他们在主场球迷面前表现糟糕，9场主场比赛只赢了3场。我希望他们至少能抽到。
