Our prediction for this Bundesliga 2 match:
Fortuna Dusseldorf will try to put an end to their five-game winless run when they face Eintracht Braunschweig in Sunday’s matinee. The hosts have been struggling to find their best form of late, but the bookies still see them as favourites to beat die Lowen in front of home fans. The likes of Sobottka, Johannesson, Affo, and Gavory are sidelined with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
Eintracht Braunschweig, on the other hand, are eager to escape the danger zone, but given their dreadful winless run in the 2024/2025 2. Bundesliga campaign, we predict that the hosts are going to emerge triumphant in Sunday’s clash. The likes of Conteh, Tauer, Raebiger, Rittmuler, Sane, and Casali are out of contention with injuries for the visiting team. In their last meeting at Merkur Spiel-Arena Fortuna Dusseldorf defeated Eintracht Braunschweig 2-0.
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.
