Nurnberg host Stuttgart at the Max-Morlock-Stadion on Wednesday (April 5) in the DFB-Pokal quarterfinals.
The hosts opened their campaign with a 2-0 win over amateur outfit Kaan-Marienborn before beating Waldhof Mannheim 1-0 in the next round. Nurnberg drew 1-1 against Fortuna Dusseldorf in the last 16 before prevailing on penalties to reach their first DFB-Pokal quarterfinals since the 2010-11 season.
Stuttgart, meanwhile, beat Dynamo Dresden 1-0 in the first round before thrashing Arminia Bielefeld 6-0 in the next. They then registered a come-from-behind 2-1 win over Paderborn, thanks to late goals from Gil Dias and Serhou Guirassy.
The visitors have endured a poor league campaign, prompting the dismissal of manager Bruno Labbadia. They will hope for better luck in the cup under new boss Sebastian Hoeness.
