1. FC Nuremberg wants to continue series against Düsseldorf
Nuremberg coach Cristian Fiel is raving about his upcoming opponents Fortuna Düsseldorf. "A clear idea of soccer, incredible ball security, lots of pace," said the coach of the Franconian second-division club on Friday, listing the Rhinelanders' qualities. Coach Daniel Thioune's team is also characterized by "a lot of individual quality, especially in attack".
Nuremberg will host Fortuna on Saturday (13:00/Sky) in front of at least 34,000 spectators. They have even won all of their last four second division games against the Düsseldorfers. "Where can I sign?" Fiel jokingly wanted to know in order to keep the streak going.
Nuremberg's eager continuation of their winning streak against Fortuna Düsseldorf in Bundesliga 2 will be put to the test, given Fortuna's renowned team play and attacking prowess in Bundesliga 2, including 1st FC Nuremberg's upcoming opponents, Fortuna Düsseldorf. If successful, Nuremberg's unbeaten run against Fortuna in the second division will extend to five games.
