THE PREDICTION
St. Pauli have been the best team in Bundesliga 2 in the second half of the season and are looking to make it five wins on the spin here. But that will not be easy against a Fortuna Dusseldorf side who have reignited their promotion hopes again with back-to-back victories. Uwe Rosler’s men won 3-0 in the reverse fixture but St. Pauli are a changed team since then, not least away from home where they are unbeaten in seven outings, winning five of those. The Hamburg club have only registered one clean sheet on the road this season, though, while Fortuna have managed just one in their last seven at the Merkur Spiel-Arena. With confidence levels high in both camps, both should be expected to score.
