Fortuna Dusseldorf Prediction
Fortuna Dusseldorf currently occupy the relegation play-off spot in the German Bundesliga prior to this important Monday night date with high-flying Borussia Dortmund who sit top of the division. Recent form has seen the hosts pick up two wins from their last five matches which were both registered at home with victories over Hertha Berlin and Freiburg.
However, a wider look at Dusseldorf’s overall results will identify that they’ve managed just two wins from their last 12 matches overall, while on home turf they possess an inconsistent looking record of 3-0-5 10/12.
Dusseldorf recorded an earlier win over Hoffenheim in mid-September but five defeats to Augsburg, Bayer Leverkusen, Schalke 04, Wolfsburg and Mainz 05 has meant that the hosts have been unable to pull themselves away from the relegation zone thus far.

Borussia Dortmund Prediction
Borussia Dortmund sit top of the Bundesliga with a 9-point margin over title rivals Borussia Moenchengladbach and Bayern Munich, both of whom are level on 30 points apiece prior to this week’s midweek action in the German top flight.
Dortmund are enjoying a successful and impressive campaign so far this season as the visitors still remain unbeaten and bring a six-match winning streak in the Bundesliga to the table for this evening’s encounter in Dusseldorf, a run that has seen Dortmund score 12 goals and concede 5 in reply and also includes a 3-2 win over Bayern Munich.
An away record of 5-2-0 14/5 looks a solid return so far for the visitors and this includes wins at Bayer Leverkusen, Stuttgart, Wolfsburg, Mainz 05 and Schalke 04, while also collecting three clean sheets.
Forwards Alcacer (11 goals) and Reus (10 goals) along with support from young English midfielder Sancho (5 goals) have provided the firepower for Dortmund.
Betting Tips Verdict
Dusseldorf have been unconvincing at home this season so a strong Dortmund unit should take the honours here.
