Fortuna Düsseldorf - 1.FC Nürnberg

Almost the same situation in Düsseldorf as last weekend. But this time they are at home and they must win now if they want to remain in 1.Bundesliga. This is a must win for them anyway. The stadium should be sold out and this give them an additional boost too. Fortuna was far away to come in trouble, they were almost 9 points ahead of Augsburg and they never think that this can be so close in the end of the season. They are even with Augsburg now, only the better goal difference speaks for them at the moment. Their bad performances also result wise in second half of the season let them fall down huge. Nothing there from their strong and good play from beginning of the season, they lost almost all and also had some problems in front of the goal. This is an additional problem which cost them points. Also the mood in team is not very good at the moment as they had a lot of fights in training. A lot of players are angry of the others and this was again this week where Coach Meier must stop the preparation for Frankfurt. With all this bad moments and problems it is very hard to see them working as team altogether. A lot of work to do for Coach Meier and his team to find the right balance and not to get deeper in danger. Nevertheless they have to let all behind them, this is the match to go nothing else. Coach Meier must replace defender Latka and back wing Balogun.

Nürnberg played a good season so far despite the lose of Coach Hecking to Wolfsburg under the season but Wiesinger and Reutershahn made a good job and hold Nürnberg in 1.Bundesliga. They saved now with 38 Points and should be without any worries in the upcoming matches. They play for nothing and this can be a problem here as players without any pressure are not willing to work hard. They slow down and give not all they are able to bring. This can be maybe a problem for Nürnberg in this encounter. Sure they talk that they want to stop their four matches losing run today but if they are motivated enough to do so, I doubt. Nevertheless their fans are not very pleased about the performances in the past also the Derby lose against Fürth hurts a lot. They had a good run but after they lost in Munich very easy they are on a huge downtrend and they could not return to their normal form in the past. A lot to do for coach Wiesinger this week. Nürnberg is without defender Nilsson and Chandler.

Fortuna is know for their aggressive play at home and they need it today, on the other side they can not play such defensive today because they need the win badly. So this can bring some space for Nürnberg and Düsseldorf is not so safe in back as they were to beginning of the season. This can bring some goals as Nürnberg can hurt them with the quick wings. If Düsseldorf fall behind they must go all in anyway and open a lot. On the other side I see Nürnberg also not so stable at the back with Nilsson out and what they were able with young Dabanli beside Klose or Nilsson they showed it in Hoffenheim. Many mistakes. So I like the goals here.
