Fortuna Dusseldorf vs Borussia Dortmund is one of the matches scheduled for Saturday, June 13, 2020 in the thirty-first round of the Bundesliga. It is a meeting of utmost importance for the host team, which is in a precarious situation in the standings. The match takes place from 16.30, on the Merkur Spiel-Arena in Dusseldorf.

Fortune Dusseldorf has little chance of escaping

Fortuna Dusseldorf has a hellish schedule this season finale. On Saturday he will meet Borussia Dortmund, after which, in the next stage, he will play in Leipzig. In the last two games he will meet Augsburg, at home, and Union Berlin, away. The new objective is as clear as possible, the defense of the sixteenth place, the one where it is currently. It gives him the opportunity to fight to stay in the Bundesliga in a double dispute with the third place team in the second league. Since the arrival of coach Uwe Rösler, Fortuna has proved difficult to defeat. He lost only two of the eleven matches played, and the winners were called Bayern Munich and Borussia Monchengladbach. Rouwen Hennings recovered in the last meetings and reached 14 goals scored.

Borussia Dortmund still has insignificant chances for the title

Borussia Dortmund lost this season the battle with Bayern Munich for the title. Decisive was the direct match, played three stages ago. The victory of the Bavarians brought the difference between the two rivals to seven points. The match with Hertha, from the previous stage, showed us a team without strength, which gave up the fight. From now on, the new goal is the second place, which is also targeted by RB Leipzig. The two will meet in the match directly in the penultimate stage. The good news comes from the infirmary. Captain Marcus Reus and young Norwegian Erling Haaland took part in training this week. Reus will not force an entry into the base team, but Haaland can return as a starter. Jadon Sancho remains the guests’ top scorer, with seventeen goals scored.

Fortuna Dusseldorf vs Borussia Dortmund Picks

If the match was played until a few stages ago, I would not have hesitated to choose a success for the guests. But now the situation is changing, Borussia Dortmund visibly slowing down. Fortuna Dusseldorf can benefit from this situation and has the chance to try a surprise result. In direct matches, played in Dusseldorf, he never lost by more than one goal. Last year he even managed to win the match played on his own arena, 2-1. I have seen that he often manages to surprise his opponent. The best half was the first of the match with Hertha when he led 3-0 at the break. It is the team with motivation in this meeting and it needs to fight to save itself from relegation.
