Team News

Fortuna Duesseldorf
Eintracht Braunschweig
  • Daniel Thioune could make one change to the side that faced Bayer Leverkusen in midweek with Jona Niemiec starting up top.
  • Takashi Uchino picked up an injury during the first half against Kaiserslautern last weekend and will miss the visit of Eintracht Braunschweig.
  • Robert Ivanov is available for selection after serving his suspension, but both Ermin Bicakcic and Jannis Nikolaou have now crossed the yellow card suspension threshold.
  • With the defensive duo both unavailable on Sunday, Saulo Decarli could make his return at centre-back.

Prediction

  • Fortuna Düsseldorf were no match for unbeaten Bundesliga leaders Bayer Leverkusen in the DFB-Pokal in midweek, but Daniel Thioune's side will be relishing a return to league action on Sunday. The home side have climbed to third in the standings following a seven-match unbeaten run and have won four of their last five ahead of this clash.
  • Eintracht Braunschweig turned in their best performance of the season so far last Saturday when they hammered Elversberg 5-0 in front of a jubilant Eintracht-Stadion crowd. Daniel Scherning's side have now climbed out of the bottom three altogether after recording back-to-back league wins.
