Phönix Lübeck vs Borussia Dortmund live stream info: How to watch DFB-Pokal online

Borussia Dortmund will officially begin their 2024/25 season with a trip to Regionalliga side Phönix Lübeck in the first round of the DFB-Pokal.

Winning the DFB-Pokal will be high on Borussia Dortmund's list of priorities for this season, and they will get the ball rolling with an away game against Phönix Lübeck. On paper, it should be an easy win for Nuri Sahin's side. But anything can happen in the DFB-Pokal, and the Black and Yellows will have to be wary of an upset on Saturday.

Several players will make their competitive debuts for Borussia Dortmund this weekend, including Pascal Groß, Yan Couto, and Maximilian Beier. Serhou Guirassy remains sidelined with the injury that delayed his move to BVB. But Sahin will be able to call upon the majority of the rest of his squad.

Phönix Lübeck have started their Regionalliga North campaign with a win and a loss. Despite being heavy underdogs, they will be determined to pull off an upset against last season's UEFA Champions League finalists.
