As usual, the DFB-Pokal will get underway a week before the start of the Bundesliga and 2. Bundesliga with the first round set to be played from 11-14 September.
The second round of the DFB-Pokal will be played on 22-23 December while the first Bundesliga matchday of 2021 has been scheduled for 2-3 January, which means the winter break will be much shorter than it usually is.
The Super Cup final between double-winners Bayern München and Borussia Dortmund, who finished second in Bundesliga in the 2019/20 season, will take place on 30 September.
