Team News

Fortuna Duesseldorf
Hertha Berlin
  • New signings Karol Niemczycki, Yannick Engelhardt and Vincent Vermeij could all make their debuts when Fortuna Düsseldorf host Hertha Berlin on the opening day of the season.
  • The home side have just one confirmed absentee with Daniel Thioune set to leave Tim Oberdorf out of the side.
  • Pal Dardai could hand debuts to left-back Anderson Lucoqui and Fabian Reese on the opening day with both men having tasted plenty of 2.Bundesliga action in the past.
  • Goalkeeper Marius Gersbeck is suspended for the away side.

Prediction

  • Fortuna Düsseldorf head into the 2023/24 campaign with plenty of positive momentum as they look to mount a promotion challenge out of the gates. Daniel Thioune's men ended last season unbeaten in five league games and only narrowly missed out on a top-three finish.
  • A final-day away win against Wolfsburg did nothing to change Hertha Berlin's fate last season as they were relegation as the 18th-placed side in the Bundesliga. The away side will immediately be title favourites in 2023/24 given the wealth of talent in their squad, but Pal Dardai must establish which senior players are up for the fight in the 2. Bundesliga.
