Our prediction for this Bundesliga 2 match:
Hansa Rostock welcome Fortuna Dusseldorf to their Ostseestadion in the 2. Bundesliga round 6. Hansa aim to bounce back from a 2-0 loss to HSV and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against Dusseldorf. Christian Kinsombi is pushing for recall to the starting XI, while all Jonas David, Simon Rhein, Milosz Brzozowski, Oliver Husing, and Lukas Scherff should miss out with injuries.
The visitors, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Elversberg (5-0) and Karlsruher (3-1) and seeing that Hansa are desperate to return to winning ways, both teams to score betting option should be considered. Midfielder Marcel Sobottka misses out with a groin problem, but he should be the only absentee in the visiting team ahead of the trip to East Germany. In their last meeting in the German second tier Dusseldorf outplayed Hansa 5-2.
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.

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.
