Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 2-1
Dusseldorf
Bochum will look to put an end to their four-game losing run in 2. Bundesliga when they take on Fortuna Dusseldorf on Matchday 7. Bochum do not seem to be at their sharpest, but Saturday’s game could turn their fortunes around in the German second tier. Philipp Strompf is rated doubtful for the home team after picking up a knock in a 2-1 loss to Nurnberg, with Romario Rosch being ready to step up.
Die Fortunen, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 3-0 loss to Darmstadt and given Bochum’s need for points, we predict that the hosts are going to emerge triumphant in Saturday’s encounter. The away team’s injury list is pretty long, including the likes of Affo, Anhari, Appelkamp, Lenz, Egouli, Raimund, and Schock, which is yet another reason why home win should be considered.
Highlighted Team (Dusseldorf):
Founded on May 5, 1985, Fortuna Dusseldorf are a German side that compete in Bundesliga . The Fingeraner welcome their rivals at their Espirit Arena, the venue that was opened in 2004. The capacity of the stadium is 54,600, but the venue did not host 2016 FIFA World Cup games.
Fortuna Dusseldorf play home games in red shirts and red shorts, with the team wearing white shirts with red stripes and white shorts on the travels. The club did well to win the Western German championship in 1931 and two years later they lifted the trophy in the German championship, which is considered their biggest success.
Speaking of the German Cup, Fortuna Dusseldorf won the DFB-Pokal twice (1979, 1980), while making it to the final of the competition in 1937, 1957, 1958, 1962 and 1978. The likes of Paul Janes, Anton Turek, Stanislaus Kobierski, Klaus Allofs, Ernst Albrecht and Erich Juskowiak are some of notable footballers who played for the Fingeraner in the past.
