Prediction: 1-1
Karlsruher
After holding HSV to a 1-1 draw with ten men on the field, Fortuna Dusseldorf will look give fans yet another reason for celebration when they take on Karlsruher at their Merkur Spiel-Arena. The first half of the season has been a mixed bag for die Fortunen, who sit in the 12th place in the standings ahead of the visit of Karlsruher. Edgar Prib is banned for the match, while both Andre Hoffmann and Schinta Appelkamp have been tested positive for coronavirus.
The likes of Dawid Kownacki and Emmanuel Iyoha are sidelined with injuries, as well as Thomas Pledl. The visitors, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-1 win over Aue. Karlsruher, though, are not regarded as good travelers, and that is the main reason why we are tempted to put our money on draw. Marius Gersbeck is out of contention through suspension, while Robin Bormuth, Sebastian Jung, Paul Lohr, and Leon Jensen are injured.
