Team News

Paderborn
Fortuna Duesseldorf
  • Kai Klefisch is suspended for the visit of Fortuna Düsseldorf this weekend, so expect Robert Leipertz to start in central midfield.
  • One further change is expected from Lukas Kwasniok with Ilyas Ansah pushing for a recall up top.
  • Daniel Thioune will make a couple of changes to the side that started in the 2. Bundesliga last Saturday with Takashi Uchino and Felix Klaus returning to the starting XI.
  • Emmanuel Iyoha will be on the sidelines until the start of March after picking up an injury in the DFB-Pokal in midweek.

Prediction

  • Paderborn played over 70 minutes with ten men against 2. Bundesliga basement boys Osnabrück last weekend but still managed to hold out for an impressive goalless draw on their travels. However, after failing to win back-to-back league games, the hosts have fallen off the pace somewhat in the promotion race.
  • Fortuna Düsseldorf enjoyed revenge for a narrow 2-1 defeat at the hands of unbeaten league leaders St. Pauli last weekend when they beat the same club in the DFB-Pokal in midweek. Daniel Thioune's men sit four points behind third-placed Holstein Kiel in the standings heading into gameweek 20.
