Borussia host Bayern in the DFB-Pokal second round
Borussia will be at home against FC Bayern München in the second round of the DFB-Pokal. The draw was completed on Sunday evening and the fixtures will be played on the 26th and 27th October.
The Foals will be without Lars Stindl for the remainder of their time at the Harsewinkel-Marienfeld training camp, after the captain sustained a knee ligament strain.
Lars Stindl, who will continue to captain Borussia during the 2021/22 season, has strained a ligament in his knee, as diagnosed following an MRI scan on Tuesday. The 32-year-old will therefore be sitting out the team training sessions at the camp in Harsewinkel-Marienfeld. Stindl will also miss this Saturday’s friendly against FC Metz, but will start returning to normal training over the course of the following week.
