It's been a long time, but the DFB-Pokal resumes Wednesday for Mainz and Bayern Munich.
The teams face off in the round of 16, nearly four months after they each earned their way into this stage of the competition. In their last action in this tournament, Mainz defeated hosts VfB Lubeck 3-0 on Oct. 18. A day later, Bayern eased to a 5-2 victory at Augsburg in which Canada star Alphonso Davies scored the game's final goal.
Now Mainz are the home side as traditional powerhouse Bayern look poised to once again challenge for more silverware. Any time Bayern lose in domestic competition, whether it's the league or the cup, it's considered an upset.
A Mainz victory on Wednesday would certainly fall under that category.
