Best Tip: Both teams to score

Karlsruher should have reason to feel positive ahead of this fixture and, funnily enough, so might Dusseldorf. The bookies don't think there's much between them and neither do we – there's no clear victor in this tie. So we look to the both teams to score market, where there's far more reason to be certain. The form statistics, past head-to-head (H2H) records and bookies odds below are all pointing towards both sides scoring, and that's the bet we'd recommend you go with.
