The 2023/24 DFB-Pokal first-round ties were drawn at the German Football Museum in Dortmund on Sunday. Borussia Dortmund will be up against TSV Schott Mainz, the winner of the Landespokal Südwest.
A few weeks ago, TSV Schott Mainz won the Championship Round of the Oberliga Rheinland-Pfalz/Saar and returned to the Regionalliga. The match will be played between 11 (Friday) and 14 (Monday) August. The DFB will announce the precise scheduling in the coming weeks.
Following meetings with third-tier TSV 1860 Munich (2022), SV Wehen Wiesbaden (2021), MSV Duisburg (2020), KFC Uerdingen (2019) and second-tier SpVgg Greuther Fürth (2018), BVB will be up against a true amateur club in the first round of the DFB-Pokal for the first time since 2017. (br)
