Borussia Dortmund take on SC Paderborn 07 in the third round of the DFB-Pokal on Tuesday. The match is scheduled to be played at the Signal Induna Park on Tuesday, February 2, and is set to kick off at 1:15 AM (Wednesday, February 3 ) according to IST. Let’s have a look at the Dortmund vs Paderborn live stream alongside other match details.

With Borussia Dortmund not in contention to win the Bundesliga title, the DFB-Pokal provides interim manager Edin Terzic the best possible opportunity to walk away with the trophy especially with Bayern Munich knocked out of the tournament. Dortmund started off their cup journey with a match against MSV Duisburg in the first round of DFB-Pokal with their last cup outing in the third round seeing them register a 2-0 win against Eintracht Braunschweig.

The hosts will walk into the match brimming with confidence as they recorded a massive 3-1 win against Augsburg in their last Bundesliga game and will be looking to carry forward the same momentum. The Black and Yellows will look to progress through to the next stage of the German cup competition and move closer to winning some silverware this season.

Paderborn, on the other hand, started off their DFB-Pokal journey with a mammoth 5-0 win over SC Wiedenbrück. They will walk into the match after beating Bundesliga outfit Union Berlin in the second round of the game and will look to pull off yet another upset as they visit Induna Park on Tuesday.
