  "account": "Borussia Dortmund will face fifth-tier side HEBC Hamburg in a DFB Pokal match on Tuesday, September 1, 2024, with a kick-off time of 7:45 PM BST. The game will take place at the Volksparkstadion in Hamburg. HEBC Hamburg, the underdogs, will enter this historic cup tie with a fully fit squad, boasting no injury concerns or disciplinary issues. Their head coach, Philipp Obloch, is expected to field his strongest lineup, potentially deploying a compact defensive block to counter Dortmund's possession-heavy approach. Goalkeeper Nils Ahmann is set to start, shielded by a preferred back three. Borussia Dortmund, on the other hand, will employ a heavy squad rotation, with backup goalkeeper Alex Meyer starting to give regular number one Gregor Kobel a rest. The match can be streamed on web browsers or the DFB Play app.",
