Fortuna Dusseldorf welcome the visitors RB Leipzig in the German Bundesliga – Round 19. The match will be held on Sunday, January 27th, at the Esprit Arena (Dusseldorf).
Fortuna Dusseldorf’s Bundesliga record is quite surprising. The streak of four consecutive wins helped them leave the relegation zone. Overall, however, the league’s newcomer’s run is not great, they registered six victories, three draws, and yet nine defeats. Nevertheless, the latest Fortuna’s clashes prove that the team are not hopeless. RB Leipzig’s performance is very inconsistent. They alternate wins and losses, and vice versa. Anyways, the team are still on the go and find themselves in the Champions League spots. They count nine victories, four draws, and five defeats. The silver holders of the one but last campaign find it far easier to play at home than away – seven of nine wins they gained on their turf.

The sides featured different outcomes in the last-round encounters. Fortuna beat Augsburg out (1:2), while Leipzig lost to Borussia Dortmund in front of their own fans (0:1). We think we may expect quite a spectacular battle tomorrow. Why? The hosts are victorious in four successive games, and they will certainly do their best to please their supporters once again. Anyways, it is very unlikely that Fortuna will succeed to register the fifth consecutive win, even Borussia Dortmund’s victorious streak is much more frugal. Furthermore, Fortuna’s previous opponents are a way weaker than Leipzig (not counting Borussia, for sure). The guests failed in the last round within the comforts of home surroundings, now they look to bounce back, moreover, their tomorrow’s opponent’s level provides for that.
Despite Leipzig’s bleak away record, we believe they are capable of not losing at least, as the sides’ level is different. Considering the guests’ attacking potential and motivation to please their fans tomorrow, we may count on an overscoring clash. Also, the home team may also make a goal. The opponents’ previous head-to-heads were often effective, the coming one will probably be same.
Prediction for the match: RB Leipzig to win with a +0.5 handicap & Over 2.5 goals.
