Team News

St. Pauli
Fortuna Duesseldorf
  • St. Pauli boss Fabian Hürzeler could make just one change to the side that beat Kaiserslautern with winger Dapo Afolayan replacing Connor Metcalfe.
  • Centre-back Adam Dzwigala and forward Etienne Amenyido are both doubtful for the visit of Fortuna Düsseldorf.
  • Daniel Thioune could opt for an unchanged starting XI on Saturday following an impressive opening-day display against Hertha Berlin.
  • Defender Tim Oberdorf remains the away side's only confirmed absentee for the trip to the Millerntor-Stadion.

Prediction

  • St. Pauli responded perfectly after being pegged back against Kaiserslautern last weekend, finding a late winner from the spot thanks to midfield linchpin Marcel Hartel. Fabian Hürzeler's men look to have started off on the right foot as they attempt to turn last season's momentum into a promotion charge.
  • Fortuna Düsseldorf kicked their season off with a statement victory at home against pre-season title favourites Hertha Berlin with Daniel Ginczek netting the winner. Saturday's visitors have been understated but smart in the window this summer, adding depth to a squad that went close in the promotion race last season.
