Best Tip: Both teams to score

After surveying all relevant statistics, including historical head-to-head (H2H) data, we have come to the conclusion that this fixture will deliver both elation and misery to both home and away supporters. We expect both Nurnberg and Dusseldorf to find the back of the net during the 90 mins, but the ultimate victor of the match seems less clear. Bookmaker's odds also point towards a both teams to score bet, and that's our recommendation.
