Germany's preeminent footballing publication reports that - with nearby alternate venues such as those belonging to FC Homburg and 1. FC Kaiserslautern already booked with round two Pokal fixtures, switching stadiums is not an option at this point. The fixture will thus have to be postponed if continued forecast rainfall on Tuesday jeopardizes the pitch. The third tier club itself issued a statement on Monday saying that a decision will be made "as soon as possible."
