If Borussia Dortmund should get through to the semi-final of the DFB Cup in the postponed fixture against Sportfreunde Lotte that has yet to be scheduled, the opponent would be Bayern Munich. The match would take place on the 25. or 26. April 2017 in the Allianz Arena in Munich.

When the draw was made for the semi-final there was an "either-or" ball in the drum to be drawn, after the match between Sportfreunde Lotte and Borussia Dortmund was cancelled on Tuesday evening after the pitch was considered not to be playable.

Matthias Sammer, who had the honour of being chosen to make the draw, drew this ball second - and this meant Beyrn Munich would be the opponent. Borussia Mönchengladbach and Eintracht Frankfurt will play in the other semi-final. (br)
