Dusseldorf take on the visitors Osnabruck in the round 9 match of German 2.Bundesliga. The match will be played on Friday, October 6th at Merkur Spiel-Arena (Düsseldorf).
Fortuna (Dusseldorf) have had a successful start to the season. F95 have been champions once, won the German Cup a couple of times, and even reached the final of the Cup Winners' Cup in 1979. However, in recent decades, the team has rarely made it to the Bundesliga 1, with only a brief two-year stint from 2018 to 2020. In the previous season, they had a chance to return to the top flight but ultimately finished in fourth place. Now, they are winning more than half of their matches. Initially, they only managed a draw against Hannover, and then they suffered a 0-1 defeat in Hamburg against the club of the same name.

The Lilac-Whites can be considered an elevator in German football, but one of a very modest level. The club has never reached the top division of the country throughout its history and has oscillated between the second and third local leagues. They had a rather weak performance in both of the previous seasons. However, in the spring, the club finished third, and the only reason they didn't move up directly was that Freiburg-2 was above them. They started the season with a draw against Paderborn despite having five losses and being eliminated from the country's cup. They only managed to secure a 2-1 victory against Hamburg at home. Then, they were leading 2-0 against Kaiserslautern but conceded goals in the closing moments of both halves, resulting in a 2-2 draw.
In their last five official matches, Fortuna has secured only victories. Experts expect a victory for the hosts in this match, and it should be relatively straightforward. However, considering the recent rounds, we recommend betting on the handicap of +1.0 goals scored for the away team.
Prediction for the match: Osnabruck to win with +1.0 handicap.
