THE PREDICTION

Three successive wins have put Fortuna Dusseldorf right back in the promotion picture, leaving them just a point behind third-placed Hamburger SV going into this weekend. Paderborn also had ambitions of promotion following relegation from the top flight last year, but it has not turned out that way for Steffen Baumgart’s side, who are currently slap bang in the middle of the table. They have only lost one of their last 10 league games at home, though, and have failed to score just once at the Benteler-Arena all season. Dusseldorf have found the net 12 times in their last seven away outings, so back both teams to score in this one.
