Regensburg and Heidenheim seek to put league struggles aside

In the 2. Bundesliga, SSV Jahn Regensburg and 1. FC Heidenheim are locking horns in a relegation battle. Their DFB-Pokal clash on Wednesday will be a crucial one as one of the two sides will progress into the last 16 and may use the win to push on in the 2. Bundesliga.

Heidenheim have had relative success in the DFB-Pokal. The team reached the quarter-final in the 2015/2016 season. Regensburg are on track to go the furthest they ever have in the DFB-Pokal if they enter the round of sixteen. The two sides have already faced one another in the league as Regensburg won 3-1 but three of their last four matches against one another have ended in a draw.

In the first round, Heidenheim defeated third tier SpVgg Unterhaching 4-0 and Regensburg beat newly relegated from the Bundesliga SV Darmstadt 98 3-1.
