Augsburg's biggest success in the DFB-Pokal came in 2009/10, when they were still a 2. Bundesliga side and reached the semi-finals.

Head coach Markus Weinzierl said in his press conference that he wasn't sure yet whether he'll rotate his squad, per the club's Twitter account (link in German). The expectation is, however, that there will be some changes to the side which beat Schalke. Augsburg captain Paul Verhaegh returns from suspension.

The 32-year-old right-back is one of the most vital players in Weinzierl's system and was sorely missed in the earlier meeting with Dortmund, when he was injured. Other than that, changes seem most likely in the attacking ranks. Former Germany international Piotr Trochowski is likely to start instead of South Korea international Koo Ja-cheol, while Koo's compatriot Ji Dong-won, who had a six-month stint with Dortmund, could replace Caiuby on the wing. Finally, Raul Bobadilla could play as the lone striker again, which would mean that Alexander Esswein keeps his spot in the XI despite a disappointing performance on the weekend.
DortmundPredicted starting XI: Burki; Piszczek, Sokratis, Hummels, Schmelzer; Gundogan, Weigl, Kagawa; Mkhitaryan, Aubameyang, CastroMarco Reus looks set to miss the game with an adductor injury, as Bleacher Report's Rory Marsden relayed. He was capably replaced by Gonzalo Castro in the win over Frankfurt, as the 28-year-old moved to the wing from his position in Dortmund's midfield trio. Shinji Kagawa came on for Reus on Sunday and will be in the starting XI against Augsburg. Overall, not much rotation is expected. Sokratis Papastathopoulos could get a game in place of Sven Bender, since the latter started the last five games and can be considered a regular at this point. One position where a change wouldn't be surprising is right-back, where Lukasz Piszczek and Matthias Ginter seem to be neck and neck. Players to Watch Despite their undeniable uptick in performance in recent weeks, Augsburg are still struggling to consistently threat their opponents, as Fox Soccer's Ross Dunbar noted:Goals have been in short supply for the Bavarians.

FC Augsburg vs. Borussia Dortmund: Team News, Preview, Live Stream, TV InfoODD ANDERSEN/Getty ImagesFC Augsburg host Borussia Dortmund in the round of 16 of the 2015/16 DFB-Pokal on Wednesday. The hosts are one of the form teams of German football, having taken 10 points from their last four matches in the Bundesliga, while also qualifying for the round of 32 in the UEFA Europa League with a last-minute winner against Partizan earlier in December. At the weekend, they beat Schalke thanks to another late winner, this time from Brazilian forward Caiuby. The Swabians look like a different team than the one Dortmund blew out of Signal Iduna Park with a 5-1 victory in the Bundesliga in late October: Augsburg were bottom of the league back then and had only won three out of their 13 matches across all competitions to that point.
