Fortuna Dusseldorf, Recent FormIn their last match Fortuna Düsseldorf enforced their superiority over Hansa Rostock with a 5-2 away win. They achieved 59% possession in that match and had 12 strikes at goal, with 8 hitting the target, up against Hansa Rostock's tally of 14 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
With 13 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, their manager Daniel Thioune will be very pleased with his team's form going forward, but he will be casting a cautious eye over his defence, who have shipped 6 goals in the same period. It's been rare for their fans not to have had something to shout about this season, with their team scoring in 11 out of 12 home games. This season, their defensive frailties have certainly been apparent, having conceded at least 1 goal in 20 of their 25 league games.
Being unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 league matches at Merkur Spiel-Arena, suggests a consistent run of home form, especially when we consider that 4 of these results were wins.
On an individual basis, Dawid Kownacki will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 5 goals in Fortuna Düsseldorf's last 6 league games.
Hamburg, Recent FormHamburg had to settle for a share of the spoils in their last match, which ran out a 0-0 draw against Holstein Kiel. They came away from that fixture with a 52% share of the possession and clocked up 25 attempts on goal with 10 on target, in comparison to Holstein Kiel, who managed 5 attempts on goal, 1 of which were on target.
It's fair to say that manager Tim Walter will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 11 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 9 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. Away goals have been high on their agenda recently, having scored in 5 of their last 6 away league games. They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games.
Hamburg will take some comfort from having only lost 1 of their last 6 games, but having managed just 2 wins shows there's room for improvement.
The Hamburg travelling support have had something to shout about on the road via the goals from Robert Glatzel, who's scored 4 goals in their last 6 league matches away from home.
It was not a positive ending for Fortuna Düsseldorf last time they met Hamburg in the league, with the game ending in a 2-0 defeat.
In their previous 3 encounters with Die Rothosen, Fortuna have shipped at least one goal in those matches.
When playing away from home in the league, Hamburg have failed to win any of their last 3 meetings with Fortuna, with the last 2 of those games ending in a draw.
There is only really one injury concern for the Fortuna manager Daniel Thioune ahead of this clash, with Nicolas Gavory (Physical discomfort) missing out, which gives Thioune a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
Hamburg manager Tim Walter has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
