Nürnberg vs Fortuna Düsseldorf: match statistics
Nürnberg displays decidedly better home form with a 50% win rate at their own stadium and a positive goal difference (+6). The hosts score an average of 1.67 goals per home match, while Fortuna Düsseldorf shows poor disposition on the road with just 27% wins and a negative goal difference (-7). The visitors concede an average of 1.55 goals away and score only 0.91, indicating offensive problems. Fortuna's form in their last five away matches is catastrophic, dominated by defeats.
