Dortmund set to record a potentially vital win over Dusseldorf
2221

On Saturday afternoon, Dortmund host Fortuna Dusseldorf at the Signal Iduna Park, in what could be a vital match in the Bundesliga title race.

The situation is simple for the home side in their pursuit of the title, they have to win their remaining two league games and hope that leaders and champions Bayern Munich slip-up in their matches. The Bavarians are currently four points ahead of BVB.

Lucien Favre’s team have now failed to win in their last two league games, drawing 2-2 with Werder Bremen last time out, having suffered a surprise 4-2 home defeat against Schalke in the Ruhr derby.

The aforementioned defeat against their local rivals ended a 15-match unbeaten home run. BVB had also previously won nine of their last ten home games in the Bundesliga. Favre’s team have been highly prolific on home soil in the German top-flight, scoring at least twice in their last 16 home games.

The home sides attacking prowess has contributed to there being over 2.5 goals scored in eight of their last nine matches on home soil.

Fortuna Dusseldorf are in the respective position of 10th place in the Bundesliga. The visitors have been inconsistent of late. However, they are unbeaten in their last two league games, beating Werder Bremen and last time out drawing 1-1 against Freiburg.

Dusseldorf’s recent outings in the German top-flight have been high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in eight of their last nine outings. Both teams have also scored in the visitors last seven games in the Bundesliga.

The visitors have struggled for victories on their travels in the Bundesliga, winning just two of their last seven outings. Both teams have scored in Dusseldorf’s last four away matches in the German top-flight.

Forebet predicts that Dortmund will record a victory in a high-scoring clash to potentially keep their title hopes alive.
