Fortuna Dusseldorf Preview – Can Dusseldorf stay in hunt?
Fortuna Dusseldorf find themselves seven points adrift of 3rd placed Greuther Furth but all three points on Monday night at their Merkur Spiel-Arena would see the hosts slash this deficit to four points – the only problem is that the visitors are 2nd placed Bochum.
Recent results have been mixed for Dusseldorf as they’ve managed to collect just two wins out of their last nine matches overall which were wins against Hannover 3-2 and Nurnberg 3-1, both at home, but defeats to Wurzburger Kickers, Holstein Kiel and Heidenheim have halted their progress.
The hosts possess a strong home record of 8-3-1 22/13 but the nature of this upcoming fixture makes the goals angle appealing; seven of Dusseldorf’s 12 home matches have resulted in over 2.5 goals.
Bochum Preview – Can Bochum move top?
All three points for Monday night’s visitors, Bochum, would see them move top of the Bundesliga 2 and they’ll be keen to produce a response in this clash following their 2-0 defeat at home to Hamburg in last weekend’s loss.
Bochum had previously won four of their preceding five matches overall following wins against Osnabruck, Braunschweig, Wurzburger Kickers and Greuther Furth, the latter being an impressive 2-1 win away from home, but they too have been susceptible to the odd defeat.
An away record of 7-1-4 19/16 indicates their occasional vulnerability, but goals have featured on a regular basis as seven of Bochum’s 12 away matches have also produced over 2.5 goals.
