THE PREDICTION

These two, based on club size and reputation, are a couple of the biggest in the second division. Fortuna Dusseldorf come into this on the back of a 1-0 defeat to Holstein Kiel in their most recent outing, last weekend. They have now failed to score in their last four league matches and begin this weekend’s round of fixtures sitting inside the bottom three. They now come up against a Schalke 04 side that come into this on the back of back-to-back victories as they maintain their promotion challenge. The visitors will expect to win this one relatively comfortably.
