The current top six teams in the Bundesliga standings are all still alive in the DFB-Pokal as the quarterfinals kick off this week.
Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, Union Berlin, SC Freiburg, RB Leipzig and Eintracht Frankfurt occupy spots 1-6, respectively, on the Bundesliga table. They are joined by VfB Stuttgart, who are in last place and are favoured to be relegated, and 2. Bundesliga side Nurnberg, who aim to play the role of giant killers.
The remaining field of clubs makes for a compelling competition as the absolute best of German football is represented, along with a pair of plucky underdogs.
