Our prediction for this Bundesliga 2 match:
Schalke
Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 2-2
Dusseldorf
Schalke will be aiming to build on a 4-2 win over Paderborn when they take on Fortuna Dusseldorf in the 2. Bundesliga round 16. Die Knappen proved their worth in their last league match and they are likely to adopt yet another attack-minded approach against Dusseldorf. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Turkey forward Kenan Karaman, who has been scoring goals for fun of late.
Daniel Thioune’s men, on the other hand, did well to crush Eintracht Braunschweig 5-0 in their last league match and given their attacking potential, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on over 2.5 goals. You should know that 20 goals in total have been netted in the previous five meetings between the two sides. Midfielder Karim Affo should be the only absentee in the away team.
Highlighted Team (Schalke):
Schalke 04 are a professional football club founded in 1904. Die Knappen (The Miners) compete in German Bundesliga and they have won seven domestic titles. Schalke have clinched five German Cup trophies as well, while lifting the UEFA Cup title in 1997. The German club defeated Italian side Inter on penalties in the title game and that was the last time the final of the competition was played in a two-legged format.
Schalke 04 play their home matches at Veltins-Arena, the stadium that has been the home of the team since 2001. The capacity of Veltins-Arena is 62,271. It is well known that Borussia Dortmund are Schalke’s main rivals and the Ruhy neighbours face each other in the Revierderby.
The likes of Klaus Fichtel (477), Norbert Nigbur (355), Rolf Russmann (304), Klaus Fischer (295), Olaf Thon (295) and Herbert Lutkebohmert (286) are the players with most appearances for die Knappen. The colour of Schalke’s home kit is blue.
