Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich will take on lower division side Ulm in the first round of the DFB Pokal at the Donaustadion on Friday.
Bayern will be desperate to deliver a much better run in the Cup tournament this season after a second-round exit last time around. They were beaten by Saarbrucken back then and the German giants will want to avoid a repeat of that embarrassment.
