Fortuna Dusseldorf enter this match as the 5th placed team on the 2. Bundesliga table with 14 points, just two points short of the 1st position.

They were in great form in early September, earning three back to back victories against Elversberg 5-0, Karlsruhe 3-1 and Hansa Rostock 3-1.

Marcel Sobotka and Andre Hoffmann are injured. Matthias Zimmermann is serving a red-card suspension.

Osnabruck Form

Osnabruck have collected only five points from the opening eight rounds, they are sitting in the last place on the table and have the worst goal difference in the league (-10).

Their results improved in the last couple of weeks, managing to beat favored Hamburg 2-1 at home, and to snatch a point of Kaiserslautern in a 2-2 draw.

Osnabruck won just one point from their three away matches this season against Paderborn while losing to Hansa Rostock and Hannover.
