Fortuna Dusseldorf will welcome Paderborn to the Merkur Spiel-Arena this Saturday for a Match Day 12 Bundesliga 2 encounter. A big battle is expected here with the teams tied on points as well as goal difference. Read on for our prediction of the match.
After 11 matches, there’s really little to separate these two sides. Both are on 20 points and +5 goal difference. However, as they prepare to battle, recent form doesn’t favor the hosts. Fortuna have three defeats in their last four matches and that might give them away.
While playing at home should favor them, they suffered back-to-back defeats there too.
At the end of the day, this game looks likely to be settled by a high score. The two teams have been prolific in attack and at times leaking at the back. Paderborn suffered just one defeat in their last five league matches.
The most recent of their matches, against Eintracht Braunschweig ended goalless which is a rare occurrence. Paderborn had Marcel Hoffmeier sent off in that game but they did well to hold on.
It was the second time in five league matches that Paderborn failed to score. All the earlier four had seen over 2.5 goals.

2 Goals Ahead Early Payout
More than 80 leagues and competitions are available on this football promotion from bet365. If the team that you have backed takes a two-goal lead at any point in the game, then your bet is a winner. This counts on both single bets and on multiple placed on the full time market, though of course on a multiple it is only the game in question that is marked as a winner, all the other selections still have to win as well.
A bet placed on any enhanced price is not valid for this offer, nor any bet that is cashed out. If you have partially chased out, the remainder of the stake is paid out as a winner. If your acca selection would have been a loser but for this offer then you will not gain any acca boost winnings. So for example, your team goes 2-0 up so you are paid out as a winner but the end result is 2-2, your bet is still a winner if all the other selections win but you do not gain any acca boost.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
