Last match of Round 17 when 1.FC Kaiserslautern hosts
Fortuna Düsseldorf on „Betzenberg“. Both teams started into the season with big
aims and both had on the list promotion but after some month we know that only
Kaiserslautern has done their work and they are close to the top with 28 Points
after 16 Rounds. On the other side Fortuna Düsseldorf had a lot of problems in
the past weeks and they are in relegation battle now after a huge downtrend.
From their last 5 matches lost they 4 and this costs Büskens his job, therefore
with Oliver Reck they have an interim Coach on the sideline today while
Kaiserslautern wants with a win come closer to the top. This can be very
important as they want to hold the pressure as high as they can but only with a
win they are one Point behind Fürth.
After the not calculated defeat to Dresden 2-3 last weekend
Kaiserslautern showed a different face in Cup under the week where they
advanced very easy against League opponent Union Berlin 3-0. Although they have
to replace important midfield player Karl they showed a really strong
performances and it was never in danger. But for today Karl is back in squad
and should start as well. This means first goal scorer Orban is out of the
starting lineup as with Karl returns the man in central midfield and also in
central back Torrejon celebrated a very good comeback after his long term
injury. Also some changes in attack possible. For Fortounis can start Gaus on
the wing while Mo Idrissou can move into the starting lineup again after
sitting on bench in Cup. For him maybe Occean or Zoller, at least one of these
guys must on bench.
It will be very interesting after Büskens has left with
which tactic or personnel team interim chief Oliver Reck go into his first
match. First sign was the comeback from powerful forward Reisinger into the
squad which was pushed off to second team from Büskens. But overall he is a
very important player for Düsseldorf as he is fighting big in every match.
Therefore it is logical that Reck counts on him, if on the wing or even in
attack. Additional he should help to get more power and idea in offense as it
was more as harmless in recent matches. But overall not too many alternatives
for Reck as with 8 players they miss a lot with injury or illness today. With
captain Lampertz is the next one not available after facing a gastrointestinal
problem on weekend. After all the problems Reck decides to take the 21 years
old player Erat from second team into the squad for this match, however he
remain on bench. He announced that he will beat Kaiserslautern a big fight
especially the well known strength of Kaiserslautern in the air and from set
pieces is expected that he brings one ort wo tall players more in his starting
lineup. This means that Weber or Ramirez as back wings maybe must clear his place for other players.
