Kaiserslautern take on the visitors Dusseldorf in the round 34 match of German Bundesliga. The match will be played on Sunday, May 28th at Fritz Walter Stadion (Kaiserslautern).
Kaiserslautern are currently ranked 8th and have accumulated 45 points. Dirk Schuster's team has only secured one victory in their last eleven league matches. Moreover, they lost their last two encounters. First, they were defeated at home by Arminia Bielefeld (1-2), and then they lost away to Karlsruher (0-2). Kaiserslautern had a decent home record for a while, but those two consecutive defeats on their own turf spoiled it a bit. Nonetheless, in sixteen matches at the Fritz-Walter-Stadion, the "Red Devils" have achieved six wins, six draws, and suffered four losses, with a total goal difference of 26 scored and 23 conceded.

Fortuna Düsseldorf failed to achieve their goal of promotion to the Bundesliga and will have to spend at least one more season in the second-tier division. Currently, Fortuna has 55 points and sits in 6th place in the Bundesliga 2 table. They won't drop below this position, but the highest they can realistically reach is 4th place. I wouldn't say that Fortuna has been playing poorly lately; rather, their performance has been inconsistent. For instance, after losing to Nürnberg (0-2), they secured two consecutive victories against Karlsruher (3-2) and Holstein Kiel (3-0). However, they then had back-to-back draws against St. Pauli (0-0) and Hannover (3-3). Throughout the season, their results have been continuously changing. The main problem for F-95 this season has been their away matches. Five wins, three draws, and eight losses with a negative goal difference of 19 scored and 24 conceded is not an impressive record to aim for the top spots.
As I mentioned before, predicting the outcomes of the final round, where motivation is absent, is very challenging, and this match is no exception. In making a prediction, I will consider the current situation. Kaiserslautern has only managed to secure one victory in almost three months, so it's difficult to have strong belief in their ability to win, despite being the home team. On the other hand, Fortuna has only lost one match during the same period and has been displaying a solid level of play. Furthermore, looking at the head-to-head matches between the teams, the advantage seems to be on the side of the visitors. Apart from a sensational loss in the first round, Fortuna has not been defeated by Kaiserslautern in six consecutive games. My prediction: Fortuna will not lose (either win or draw).
Prediction for the match: Dusseldorf not to lose.
