Leverkusen – St. Pauli Tip DFB Pokal, quarter-finals on Tuesday, 03.02.26 at 20:45 CET
While St. Pauli had a more than shaky start to the DFB Cup against Norderstedt, the Hamburg team has now declared the Cup their favourite competition.
While there is a threatening crisis in the Bundesliga among the Kiezkicker, Hoffenheim and Gladbach, two higher-ranked opponents, have already been kicked out of the competition in the cup.
At the BayArena, the North Germans will once again have to deal with a more presumed team, but in my opinion they will actually prove to be worthy of being favourites with the latest bookmakers.
In the Leverkusen St. Pauli prediction, my tendency is therefore clearly towards the hosts, who are also already capable of scoring the two goals I predicted on their own.
Leverkusen vs. St. Pauli AI predictions:
Taking into account the rather contrary ambitions, our AI also quickly came to the conclusion that there can actually only be one winner in the first quarter-final of this year’s DFB Cup.
Accordingly, the recommended “Leverkusen win” is a classic safety tip, as the manageable odds suggest. With a 1.50, the bookmakers with PayPal make a classic precision landing.
However, the next forecast already lets it be known that the horse can also be put before the horse from the opposite end at an almost identical odds: The tip Win St. Pauli with handicap +2 has only priced in a wafer-thin victory of the favorite – and is good for values of just under 1.55.
Predicted chance of winning:

Victory St. Pauli |

If the first two tips from the artificial intelligence are superimposed, Bayer 04 should actually win the upcoming cup match by exactly one goal, according to Adam Riese.
If Leverkusen actually prevails with only the narrowest conceivable result, the bookies will reward this with the repayment of 3.7 times the stake in the event of success.
The goal by Patrik Schick, which was expected at the end, is a little less impressive. If Leverkusen’s sharpest weapon strikes once again, punters can calculate with odds of around 2.10.
