DFB Pokal Germany semi-final preview
Wednesday 3 April 2024
Leverkusen – Dusseldorf
Time: 1:45 a.m. Live broadcast: Youtube German Football
Stadium: BiArena
Readiness before the competition: Xabi Alonso, the energetic young coach of “Drugstore”, is only missing Arthur, the Brazilian full-back, who is injured and will be resting for a long time, having little effect. Still, in the case of Victor Boniface and Echequiel Palacios, who just returned to practice, we have to wait and see if they will be included or not. The organization of the team shows signs of rotation, led by Matej Kovar, a former youth goalkeeper for Manchester United, who has reserved the goalkeeper for the cup in place of captain Lucas Hradecki. In addition, Josip Stanićić , Nathan Tella, Jonas Hoffmann, Adam Hlocek and Borja Iglesias are all in line to start.
As for Daniel Thiune, Dusseldorf’s boss has had some problems without Daniel Bunk and Nicolas Gavori, who were injured and returned at the end of the month, while Marcel Sobottka and Takashi Uchino are waiting to be fit, believing they are unlikely to recover in time. In this team there are protagonists such as Ao Tanaka, a midfielder with a degree in the Japanese national team, Christos Solis, a Greek striker on loan from Norwich City, and Shinta Appelkamp. The half-German, half-Japanese attacker has previously been a youth player with the “Blue Samurai” flag.
Players expected to enter the field
Leverkusen (3-4-2-1) : Matey Kovar – Josip Stanic, Jonathan Tah, Edmond Tapsoba – Nathan Tella, Robert Andric, Granit Xhaka , Piero Incapie – Jonas Hoffmann, Adam Hlocek – Borja Iglesias.
Düsseldorf (4-2-3-1) : Florian Kastenmaier – Matthias Zimmermann, Tim Oberdorf, Yamil Seibert, Emmanuel Iyoha – Janni. Engelhardt, Ao Tanaka – Felix Klaus, Isaac Bergmann Johannesson, Shinta Appelkamp – Christos Soli S
Probability of the game
Leverkusen was raised as a “favorite”, almost lying down as the only top-flight team remaining. But first you have to beat Dusseldorf, whose strength is not ugly. The quality is on par with the Bundesliga level. Ultimately, I still believe that Xabi Alonso’s youngsters should shoot through.
Expected match result: Leverkusen wins Dusseldorf 3-0.
