THE PREDICTION
Fortuna Dusseldorf must win this to stand any chance of snatching third place, although any kind of result for Greuther Furth - who they play on the final day - would make that impossible. Uwe Rosler’s men were held at home to relegation-threatened Eintracht Braunschweig last Saturday having twice been in front, but they have only lost twice at home all season - and both defeats came against the current top two. They have also scored at least two goals in five of their last six home fixtures. Erzgebirge Aue were on the end of an astonishing 8-3 drubbing against Paderborn last Sunday, and their defence could be in for a busy afternoon again. Dusseldorf to win and over 2.5 goals looks an appealing option here.
