The German Bundesliga also makes a return on Friday night and our next preview features the clash between Fortuna Dusseldorf and Wolfsburg as the betting tips continue at the Merkur Spiel-Arena.
Fortuna Dusseldorf Prediction – Can Fortuna Dusseldorf open their account at home?
Although Friday night’s hosts, Fortuna Dusseldorf, have already registered a win in the German top flight by beating Werder Bremen 3-1 away from home, the hosts are yet to register a win on home turf at their Merkur Spiel-Arena as they lost their opening home match of the season.
That loss was a 3-1 defeat at home to Bayer Leverkusen, and this was followed by a second loss on the trot when Fortuna Dusseldorf travelled to face Eintracht Frankfurt on the road just before the international break.
Fortuna Dusseldorf finished in a mid-table position of 10th place at the end of last season, but having won 9 of their total wins of 13 at home, it looks like the hosts will need to continue their form on home turf this season if they’re to avoid a relegation battle later on in the season.
However, the omens don’t look good for Fortuna Dusseldorf as Wolfsburg have won 4 of the 6 previous meetings between the two sides, including a 3-0 win in Dusseldorf back in October of last year.
Wolfsburg Prediction – Can Wolfsburg continue dominance over their hosts?
The visitors achieved a creditable 6th place finish in the Bundesliga at the end of last season which earned Wolfsburg a place in the Europa League this term, and they’ll no doubt be looking to build upon a promising start to this season’s German top flight campaign too.
Wolfsburg remain unbeaten after their first 3 matches of this season having registered back-to-back wins against Cologne 2-1 at home and a convincing 3-0 win away at Hertha Berlin, which was followed by a 1-1 draw at home with Paderborn.
Given Wolfsburg’s dominance over Friday night’s hosts, Fortuna Dusseldorf, as the visitors are unbeaten in their 6 previous meetings against their opponents, Wolfsburg will make their way to Dusseldorf in a confident frame of mind as they seek to add to their early points tally of 7 points.
In addition, Wolfsburg have won 2 of their 3 previous visits to Dusseldorf, and another 3 points on Friday night would see the visitors move top of the Bundesliga, albeit for a temporary period probably.
