TSV 1860 Munich hosts Karlsruher SC in the round of 16 of the DFB Cup.

A lot of money is at stake for the lions.

Also with a view of Hasan Ismaik.

Munich – TSV 1860 Munich against Karlsruher SC: If you look at the eternal Bundesliga table*, you will undoubtedly recognize a traditional duel in German football in this constellation.

This Tuesday, both clubs will face each other from 6.30 p.m. (here in the live ticker) in the DFB Cup round of 16*, at "Giesings Höhen" in the time-honored Grünwalder Stadium*.

TSV 1860 Munich in the DFB Cup: Lions dream of the quarter-finals before the KSC game

And: After the 1-0 win against FC Schalke in October, the six-year-olds are dreaming of the next sensation in the cup competition.

After all, KSC, as the second division team, is the favorite against the Löwen, whose coach Michael Köllner is obviously really looking forward to catching up against Wehen Wiesbaden (3:2 after a 0:2 deficit)*.

"It's a great game for us.

In the end we can only win," said the 52-year-old from Oberpfalz before the game against Baden: "We want to make it as difficult as possible for KSC and maybe create a big surprise and make it into the last eight.

That is our goal.”

TSV 1860 Munich in the DFB Cup: Lions collect high bonuses

Sure: For "Munich's great love", as the Giesingers call themselves, it's about a unique sporting opportunity and more attention in the football republic, which is somewhat neglected in the 3rd division nationwide.

But it's also about a lot of money.

The six-year-old have already collected a little more than 900,000 euros in bonuses after defeating two second division clubs in Schalke and SV Darmstadt (6:5 nE).

A win against KSC and a place in the quarter-finals could add over a million euros.

DFB-Pokal: TSV 1860 Munich has already brought in more than 900,000 euros

• Bonuses in the DFB Cup 2021/22 (Source: Kicker)

• 1st round: 128,757 euros (entry fee)

• 2nd round: 257,514 euros

• Round of 16: 515,028 euros

• Quarter-finals: 1.004 million euros

• Semi-finals: 2.008 million euros

• DFB Cup final: not certain yet

It's an immense sum for a third division team, considering that the lions are working with a total budget of 4.7 million euros this season, according to consistent media reports. But this should be significantly reduced in the coming season, also according to consistent media reports. This is exactly where the DFB Cup millions come into play.

But: Investor Hasan Ismaik still has a say.

Sums between 60 and 80 million euros are repeatedly mentioned when it comes to quantifying what the club owes its Jordanian majority owner.

And: the main sponsor "die Bayerische" recently extended the contract with TSV 1860 Munich.

Board member Martin Gräfe made it clear in an interview with

and

that the insurer expects the lions to be in the 2nd Bundesliga* by 2025 at the latest.

TSV 1860 Munich: Löwen need every euro for the 2nd Bundesliga goal

Of course, the Giesingers need every available euro for this (main) goal.

And that in times when Corona is once again forcing them to play ghost games - also against KSC.

On Tuesday evening, the great opportunity is still within reach to make a big splash when it comes to financial injections.
