How to watch the DFB Pokal match between Wolfsburg and Leipzig, as well as kick-off time and team news.

RB Leipzig travel to the Volkswagen Arena to face Wolfsburg in a fiesty clash in the DFB Pokal with both teams vying to land a massive sucker punch on their rivals.

Wolfsburg bashed fifth-tier side Makkabi in the DFB Pokal Third Round to enter the next phase of the competition. The German side had five different scorers with Tiago Tomas scoring a brace as they completely thrashed the lower ranked outfit in the previous round. On a disastrous streak of three losses in three games, Wolfsburg would be looking to end their disastrous record when they face RB Leipzig on Tuesday.

RB Leipzig, on the other hand, have had a staggering start to their Bundesliga campaign just five points behind league leaders Bayer Leverkusen. Die Rotten Bullen thumped FC Koln 6-0 in their last game in the Bundesliga and the German heavyweights have looked in sublime form of late. RB Leipzig managed a narrow victory against second tier side Wehen Wiesbaden winning 3-2 on the back of a brace from Benjamin Sseko and Marco Rose's men would be looking to avoid any slip ups this time out.
