Fortuna Dusseldorf hosts Bochum in round 26 of German Bundesliga 2. The match will be played on Monday, March 22nd at Merkur Spiel-Arena (Düsseldorf)
Fortuna is on the sixth line with 40 points scored. The gap to the third place is six points, and the first position is eight points ahead. In theory, Fortuna can still intervene in the struggle for promotion. But the team needs to minimize the number of its mistakes. The defense is its vulnerable part (33 goals conceded in 25 rounds). And this is the worst indicator among the teams of the top nine. Nevertheless, the Reds manage to achieve decent results due to a good attack. And there are certain chances of achieving a resounding success even in the current season. There are decisive matches ahead, when you need to show your maximum potential. Team leaders must show themselves, and it's time for them to take the initiative in their hands.

Bochum is in first place in the standings with 48 points. However, it cannot be said that the team is the most obvious candidate for promotion. Yes, the situation is developing positively, and the Blues manage to stay on the first line, but the opponents are in the immediate vicinity. Hamburg and Holstein are just two points behind, and Greuther Furth is not that far. Any of these teams would be happy to take advantage of Bochum's misfire. But Bochum itself is far from perfect. The club has one of the best attacks in the league but often makes mistakes in defense. Hence the results such as the defeat to Erzgebirge and Hamburger SV (0-1 and 0-2). In the next round, Bochum must prove that the defeat did not break the team’s will. Given the leadership in the standings, Bochum has the greatest expectations. Football players must understand what responsibility now rests on their shoulders. Promotion to the Bundesliga is at stake, and this season could be a successful one for the club.
We should expect an equal game from the upcoming match. Bochum must not make mistakes, otherwise the team will lose its leadership. The Blues have an excellent attacking line, and it was due to the attacking actions that they climbed so high. But Fortuna is also capable of responding, as it loves to arrange goal shootouts. Dusseldorf is weak defensively but has its trump cards in the attack. In the first match of the current season, Bochum won at home (5-0). We are waiting for a scoring match again, albeit without such a romp. Over 2.5 goals scored is our choice for a bet. These two attacking teams will probably show their strengths.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 goals scored
