THE PREDICTION
Fortuna Dusseldorf will still be reeling from their 5-0 drubbing at the hands of Bochum on Monday night, although they did have 10 men for nearly all of the game. Uwe Rosler’s men will be glad to be back on home turf, where they have taken 10 points from a possible 12 so far this season. Darmstadt bounced back from two heavy defeats of their own with a 4-0 win at home to Eintracht Braunschweig last Friday. Only two sides have conceded more goals than the Lilies but only three have scored more, and with a couple of days’ extra time to prepare, they have to be fancied to come out on top in what could well be a high-scoring contest at the Merkur Spiel-Arena.
