Domestic fortunes continue to elude, with no goals yet scored; the opportunity for a breakthrough presents itself next.
Fortuna Düsseldorf is set to face Darmstadt 98 in their third home game of the season on Sunday afternoon at 13:30, with the game being broadcast on Sky. However, the injuries to midfielder Shinta Appelkamp and striker Tim Rossmann could potentially weaken their chances.
The absences of Appelkamp and Rossmann will impact Fortuna Düsseldorf's lineup, as they will be unavailable for Sunday's game. The injuries to these key players further complicate Fortuna Düsseldorf's pursuit of their first home win and goal.
Daniel Thioune, the coach of Fortuna Düsseldorf, is challenged to give the audience more than they have in the last 180 minutes. Thioune has the fans in mind, aiming to give them more in the upcoming game.
Fortuna Düsseldorf has lost their last home game against Hannover 96 and drew against Karlsruhe SC. Despite this, the team is placed at least in the middle of the table. However, they are not yet satisfied with the bigger picture. Fortuna Düsseldorf aims to celebrate their first home win and score their first home goal.
The team has won two of their three away games, which could provide some optimism. However, with eight players, including Appelkamp and Rossmann, injured and unavailable for Sunday's game, Fortuna Düsseldorf will be facing a shortened squad.
Thioune emphasizes that Fortuna Düsseldorf is still in their process of finding themselves. Despite the challenges, the team is determined to put up a strong fight against Darmstadt 98. The game promises to be an exciting one, with both teams eager to secure a win.
