Stuttgart are rank underdogs against Bavarian giants Bayern Munich, who on Saturday added the UEFA Champions League title to their Bundesliga success this season.
Bayern finished 48 points ahead of the 12th-placed Stuttgart in the Bundesliga and won both league fixtures against them 8-1 on aggregate during the recently completed campaign.
But Bobic is still hopeful his side can cause an upset in Berlin, and says Wigan's shock FA Cup success against Manchester City at Wembley can be used as inspiration.
