THE PREDICTION
Fortuna Dusseldorf failed to back up their victory on the opening weekend of the season, losing 2-3 to Werder Bremen last time out. They travel to Nurnberg who remain hunting for their first league win of the campaign, having drawn each of their first two games. The hosts showed promise away to Paderborn, scoring twice in a 2-2 draw and come into this match on the back of advancing to the next round of the DFB Pokal. However, whilst they will likely adopt an attacking playstyle in a bid to secure three points with home advantage in their favour, Fortuna have racked up nine goals over the course of their last three matches in all competitions and their in-form frontline will no doubt look to take advantage of any space afforded to them inside the opposition half, should Nurnberg push bodies forward. When taking this into account, it would be no surprise to see both teams find the net here in an entertaining contest that could go either way.
