In Round 16 of the Bundesliga on Tuesday, December 18th, the Fortuna Dusseldorf – Borussia Dortmund will be played. The confrontation will take place on “Espirit Arena”, starting at 19:30. Both bands won victories over the weekend.

The host team left the red light posture after being imposed on Freiburg, score 2-0. After a white first half, Ayhan made the double in the second half of the game, bringing the third success this season for his band. The home defender was at its first success. With this success, Dusseldorf climbed to the 16th position in the standings and has only two points to recover from the red zone. In the eight home games he scored three victories and five defeats. In four of the last five games played on the “Espirit Arena” there were no goals scored in both gates.

On the other side, the “yellow-blacks” continue their race to the 9th title after their success with Bremen, score 2-1. As we have already used, Alcacer and Reus have been at the forefront. The two scored in the 20th and 27th minutes respectively, reaching not less than 21 times, more than half of the goals scored so far by Borussia. In fact, Alcacer and Reus are leaders in the Bundesliga scorers. However, the fight for the title of top scorer is announcing a fire in this edition, players like Lewandowski, Jovic, Werner, Haller or Hazard, and they have a hard word to say. Thus, Favre’s band kept its nine points ahead of its main rival, Bayern Munich. In four of the last five runs, Dortmund scored at least two goals.

The last direct confrontation between the two bands took place in the spring of 2013. Borussia then beat the score of 2-1. Two of the three official matches recorded so far have ended.
