VfB Stuttgart on the verge of a cup sensation: Must survive against Regensburg!

There are exciting duels in the round of 16 of the DFB Cup this evening, with VfB Stuttgart taking on Jahn Regensburg, who are currently at the bottom of the 2nd Bundesliga table. Stuttgart, a participant in the Champions League, is considered the clear favorite. However, Jahn Regensburg is having a miserable season with just eight points from 14 games, while Stuttgart, despite their renowned past, have suffered some setbacks in recent games, such as a 5-1 defeat against Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League.

Ermedin Demirovic in focus

A bright spot for VfB Stuttgart could be Ermedin Demirovic, who has shown impressive form in the last few games. Demirovic not only scored goals, but also set up his teammates excellently. He said: "I would have been happy with more points and I would have accepted fewer goals instead. But as a striker, every goal is of course good." Coach Sebastian Hoeneß praised his development and the quality of his actions. The coach is certain: “The cup is just about performing in one game.” The club has high expectations of reaching the quarter-finals and preparing for future challenges, such as sportschau.de reported.

Hopes rest on Demirovic, who, after his recent successes in the league and Champions League, will also be looking to make a splash in the cup. Stuttgart wants to make it to the quarter-finals a must, which could have a decisive impact on their health and fitness level on the pitch. The team is missing some key players, but they remain confident that they can use this opportunity to successfully progress through the cup round krone.at analyzed.
