A Sports Betting Pick by Niko
Football; Germany: 2.Bundesliga

Fortuna Düsseldorf
Fortuna Düsseldorf are still near the bottom, and results haven’t really improved. They continue to concede soft goals that cost them points.
They lost 1-0 to direct rivals Eintracht Braunschweig last week, and the lack of goals is very concerning. With only 24 goals in 26 games, Fortuna Düsseldorf are by far the worst attacking side in 2.Bundesliga.
One thing that keeps Fortuna Düsseldorf above the relegation spots is their recent excellent home run. They incredibly won four of their last five home matches, which keeps them five points above the drop zone before this weekend.
Hertha Berlin
Hertha Berlin looks much more stable right now. They are unbeaten in three games, sit sixth, and are making a push towards third place. They are unlikely to catch it, but a remote chance still exists.
Hertha Berlin doesn’t always dominate, but they are more efficient than Fortuna Düsseldorf. They take their chances and manage games better, especially against weaker sides.
Away form is solid enough, fourth-best in 2.Bundesliga. Hertha Berlin recently won two of their last three on the road.
The Betting Verdict
Hertha Berlin comes in as the more reliable side. They have also beaten Fortuna Düsseldorf in three of their last five 2.Bundesliga duels, including in their first match 1-0 this season.
It should be tight, but I would go with Hertha Berlin remaining unbeaten and possibly winning.
The Pick :
Fortuna Düsseldorf 0-1 Hertha Berlin
BEST BETTING TIP :
Take Hertha Berlin to win or draw (X2) at odds of 1.62 at Bet365
