Hamburg derby: Eintracht Norderstedt welcomes St. Pauli in the DFB Cup!

This Saturday, August 16, 2025, the Millerntor Stadium in Hamburg-St. Pauli is hosting an exciting football event: Eintracht Norderstedt meets 1. FC St. Pauli in the DFB Cup. Kick-off takes place at 3:30 p.m. Although Norderstedt is considered the host, both clubs agreed to play the game in the Kiezkicker stadium. This promises an exciting atmosphere with passionate fans who will keep the atmosphere going.

The game will not be broadcast on the classic channels ARD or ZDF, but can be seen exclusively on Sky.

The game will be commented on by Torsten Kunde, who will accompany the spectators through the exciting moments.

Statistical signs

Before the game rolls around, let's take a look at the current statistics of the two teams. Eintracht Norderstedt scored more than 2.5 goals in 8 of 11 games, and both teams were able to net in 4 of 5 games. 1. FC St. Pauli, on the other hand, recorded more than 2.5 goals in 15 of 24 games and both teams were also on the top scorer list in 3 of 5 games. The potential for a high-scoring match is definitely high here.

It's always hard-fought territory in the lower region of the table and the DFB Cup is a great opportunity for Norderstedt to show what they're made of against higher-class opponents. They have nothing to lose, and that could make them particularly dangerous.

The style of the game

While football fans support their teams, Eintracht Frankfurt's new home jersey from adidas is also making headlines. It's not only a real eye-catcher for Frankfurters, but could also attract attention from fans of the DFB Cup. In the club's own colors of red, black and white, the jersey features wide, vertical stripes reminiscent of the 1980s. Here, the nostalgic feeling is underlined by a subtly elevated design and the Eintracht eagle and Indeed's main sponsor logo add the finishing touches to the look.

The three black adidas stripes on the shoulders, which many associate with the traditional company, also testify to a special extra. For fans in the North German region, the jersey could offer a welcome change and bring them closer to a piece of the club's history.

Whether on the pitch or in the stands – there is a lot on offer in Hamburg today. The anticipation for the duel is palpable and it remains to be seen who will emerge as the winner. One thing is certain: spectators can look forward to a thrilling duel that is characterized by the combination of tradition and sporting ambition.
