The Black and Reds kick-off the new season with a knockout game against the fourth division side from North Rhine Westphalia one week before the Bundesliga begins.

The match will be played at the Tivoli Stadium in Aachen (Krefelder Straße 205, 52070 Aachen) and broadcast live on Sky.
Tickets for the game go on sale the week after next on Tuesday 9 July 2019 (Club members) and are on general sale from Thursday 11 July 2019.
