Fortuna Düsseldorf vs Nüernberg prediction and betting tips on April 26 2025
On April 26, the Merkur Spiel-Arena will host a 31st round match of the 2nd German Bundesliga, where Fortuna Düsseldorf will face Nürnberg. I suggest betting on goals/cards/winner for this match.
Fortuna Düsseldorf
The team has spent most of the recent years in the country's second division. Even when they managed to break into the elite league, it ultimately ended with relegation, if not immediately, then after the second year at that level. It seemed that the players were supposed to fight for survival in Bundesliga 1 this time as well. However, after confidently winning the first playoff match against Bochum in 2024, they clearly relaxed and allowed their opponent to take revenge, eventually losing the penalty shootout and staying at the more familiar lower level.
After the summer break, the club started powerfully, and it seemed that they would learn from last year's lessons and qualify directly. But then there were several extremely unsuccessful periods. Nevertheless, there are chances to repeat or even surpass the previous result. But after a 1-1 draw with Elversberg, those chances have certainly diminished.
Nüernberg
The club is generally quite successful, especially in cup competitions. But lately, it doesn't stand out even at the level of Bundesliga 2. For instance, last season they managed to collect only 40 points, which resulted in a twelfth-place finish in the division.
Miroslav Klose was invited to raise the level. And the famous former striker was making some progress. But in the winter, the leaders were sold, which immediately affected the results. They ended up with a 2-3 loss to Paderborn.
Match facts
- Fortuna Düsseldorf won three of their last six matches
- Fortuna scores an average of 1.6 goals and concedes 1.43 goals per match

H2H
Last season, Fortuna won twice. This season, they settled for a 2-2 draw away.
Fortuna Düsseldorf vs Nürnberg prediction
Bookmakers do not believe that the visitors will be able to offer serious resistance to their opponent here. We bet on the hosts to achieve victory (odds - 1.833).
