Four contenders are in contention to capture the 2020 DFB Pokal title. But, two teams including Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen have a real chance to win at 2020 DFB Pokal odds. It might be very risky to bet against Bayern, but Leverkusen has a strong hope to make history this season.

Should the 2020 season resume in near future, Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen be massive favorites to win the semi-finals on April 21 and 22? Thus, they will be going head-to-head in the final on May 23 at the Olympiastadion in Berlin. According to online gambling sites in Germany, the defending champions Bayern remain the frontrunners. Whereas, Leverkusen potentially offer very strong competition to win the title at 2020 DFB Pokal odds.

Bayern Munich hopeful to win another treble

Despite postponing the season due to the developments of the coronavirus crisis, Bayern Munich remains in all three competitions. They hope to win a treble of Bundesliga, DFB Pokal, and the Champions League titles. Bayern has had a rocky start of the season, but they are back on track, winning 14 of their previous 15 matches. They have a foot in the Champions League quarter-finals and a hand on the Bundesliga title.

DFB Pokal is considered the easiest competition for the Bavarians who hold 19 titles, including four in the 2010s. They have advanced to the semi-finals with a 1-0 win over Schalke. Accordingly, their 2020 DFB Pokal odds value 1.33 at Bet365 Sportsbook to retain the title. But, given the pressure from Bundesliga and Champions League, it is unclear how far Bayern will be able to keep consistency.

Leverkusen look to win the title for the second time in history

Bayer Leverkusen came from behind in the last 16 to defeat 10-man Union Berlin 3-1 at BayArena. They have advanced to the semi-finals with a coming fixture against fourth tired Saarbrucken. It should be an easy test on the way to the final. Leverkusen has reached three DFB Cup Finals, but they have won the competition only once in 1993. Should they knock out Bayern Munich, they will secure the title with 4.50 odds for the second time in the club’s history.

Eintracht Frankfurt the massive underdogs

Eintracht Frankfurt has made the semi-finals with a 2-0 home win over Werder Bremen. This will be their third semifinal in four years. Their latest DFB Pokal title came in 2018 with a 3-1 defeat against Bayern Munich in the final. In 2017 they have reached the final as well, only to lose 1-2 against Borussia Dortmund. However, this time they have a very tough match against Bayern Munich in the semi-final and they do not look well prepared to drop out the champions.

If you think Eintracht Frankfurt should not be underestimated, their odds are 9.00 to win the title. Besides, if you wish to see all the best 2020 DFP Pokal odds, you can check out our review about Bet365 Sportsbook.
