The ties for the teams in Round Two, which includes the Werkself thanks to the recent 1-0 win at CfR Pforzheim, will be drawn by Gina Lückenkemper. The 21-year-old sprinter from TSV Bayer 04 Leverkusen won silver in the 100 metres final at the European Championships in Berlin at the start of August. The draw will be broadcast live on the ARD Sportschau programme at 18.00 CET.

As with the draw for the first round there will be two draw bowls: The lower league teams cannot play each other in this round, they are all at home and they will play one of the top clubs.

The 16 ties in Round Two will be played on 30 and 31 October: On both Tuesday and Wednesday, there will be four matches at 18.30 CET and four at 20.45 CET.
