After the National break, the Bundesliga starts again with the first advance of the fourth day between Dusseldorf and Wolfsburg
From the Merkur Spiel-Arena in Düsseldorf the German championship starts again after the stop dedicated to the National teams.
The referee Grafe, will lead the match between the second in the standings (Wolfsburg) and the 12th (Dusseldorf).
All the three games played so far by Fortuna Dusseldorf were fun and full of goals: a 3-1 win at Werder Bremen was however defeated against Bayer Leverkusen at home and Eintracht Frankfurt away, the latter with a goal immediately four minutes after the end of the regular time. The Fortuna Dusseldorf calendar in this championship start is not particularly easy, and this time too it will have to contend with a team equipped for a high-ranking championship, the Wolfsburg.
The hosts had problems at home early last season, losing four of their first five Bundesliga games. Curiously, Fortuna Düsseldorf was the only club not to equal a home game last season.
The Wolfsburg remains unbeaten this season (2 wins, 1 draw), winning its only Bundesliga trip ‘to zero’, something it did only in 23.53% of matches during last season – the fourth highest in the league . In this sense Wolfsburg has turned the corner, having closed last season, losing four of the last five away games to “zero”.
In that opening away win, two of the three total goals came in the last 15 minutes, which led to a trend seen last season in which 53.85% of away goals were scored in the last 15 minutes of both times.
Players to keep an eye on: Rouwen Hennings (DUS), who scored six home goals during last season, and both teams scored in all those (five) games.
Wout Weghorst (WOL), who scored in his opening league game. He also scored in both direct matches during last season.
STATISTICS
there have been 41 games since Fortuna Düsseldorf saw the last 0-0 draw in a home game in the league.
Wolfsburg are unbeaten in their last six direct matches in the league (4 wins, 2 draws), winning both games during last season.
Both teams scored only 41.18% of Wolfsburg’s away games during the last league season.
Here are the main odds of the match
Home win at 3.00, equal to 3.55, guests win at 2.25
A match rich in goals is expected, for this reason we find the classic OVER 2.5 (1.63), the GOL (1.54) and the OVER + GOL (1.80)
Interesting is the OVER 3.5 (2.59)
