Team News

Fortuna Duesseldorf
Holstein Kiel
  • Jona Niemiec scored twice from the bench in the DFB-Pokal in midweek but is unlikely to oust Vincent Vermeij from the starting XI here.
  • Two changes are expected from Daniel Thioune with Felix Klaus and Christos Tzolis set to return to the side.
  • Marcel Rapp will likely opt for an unchanged starting XI this weekend following his side's latest victory.
  • Marco Komenda, Timo Becker and Marvin Schulz are all doubtful for the trip to the Merkur Spielarena this weekend.

Prediction

  • Fortuna Düsseldorf produced one of the most dominant performances of the season last weekend when they hammered Nürnberg 5-0 on their visit to Max-Morlock-Stadion.
  • Back-to-back league wins have moved the hosts within four points of league leaders St. Pauli heading into gameweek 16.
  • A late Ivan Prtajin brace threatened to undo Holstein Kiel's positive work against Wehen Wiesbaden last weekend, but Marcel Rapp's side held on to see out a 3-2 home win.
  • That victory saw the visitors leapfrog Hamburg into second place ahead of one of their toughest tests of the season so far.
