1. FC Kaiserslautern v Fortuna Dusseldorf : Bundesliga 2 match betting preview, prediction and odds

Sat 4th Apr, 12:00 BST, Fritz-Walter-Stadion, Kaiserslautern

1. FC Kaiserslautern and Fortuna Dusseldorf clash at the Fritz-Walter-Stadion on Saturday lunch time, with both Torsten Lieberknecht and Markus Anfang seeking a win in the Bundesliga 2. The aim of this preview is, quite simply, to help you make the smartest bet possible. To this end, statistics for the biggest betting market have been laid out below, with head to head (H2H) history and particularly important form streaks highlighted. Odds are included as well.


Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest there isn't an obvious winner here, but the evidence does point towards the conclusion that Kaiserslautern and Dusseldorf will find the net twice at least between them. That has been the case when they've gone head-to-head in the past, and neither Torsten Lieberknecht or Markus Anfang has subjected their supporters to too many 0-0s recently either. The bookmakers predict over 1.5 goals too, with odds of 1.18 equating to roughly a 75% probability.
