Team News

Holstein Kiel
Fortuna Duesseldorf
  • Marcel Rapp could make one change to the side that beat Wehen Wiesbaden with forward Shuto Machino replacing Nicolai Remberg.
  • Steven Skrzybski and Marco Komenda are among four injury concerns for the hosts.
  • Felix Klaus missed the game against Nürnberg through suspension but should slot straight back into the starting XI on Saturday.
  • Centre-back Jamil Siebert is out for the rest of the season with a tendon injury, while striker Marlon Mustapha is also unavailable.

Prediction

  • Defender Timo Becker made a vital contribution in front of goal last Sunday as Holstein Kiel edged a cagey affair against relegation-threatened Wehen Wiesbaden at the BRITA-Arena. That result lifted Marcel Rapp's side back to the top of the 2. Bundesliga table, meaning a draw here would guarantee promotion to the top flight.
  • Fortuna Düsseldorf kept their dreams of automatic promotion alive last Friday with a commanding home win against a free-falling Nürnberg side. The visitors are in a sensational vein of form and travel to Holstein Kiel unbeaten in 12 league matches knowing that a win would give them a chance of avoiding the promotion play-off heading into the final day.
