"Fortuna Düsseldorf's Pre-Season Preparation: Ready for the Upcoming Campaign"
The highly-anticipated 2025/26 2. Bundesliga season is upon us, and Fortuna Düsseldorf fans are gearing up for an exciting ride. The live ticker will serve as your go-to source for updates on all Fortuna Düsseldorf news throughout the season.
Kicking off the season is a clash against Arminia Bielefeld at the Schüco Arena in Bielefeld on August 2, 2025, with a scheduled kickoff at 20:30 CEST (19:30 UK time). This match is considered a "Topspiel" (top game) in the 2. Bundesliga due to both teams’ ambitions and recent history.
Arminia Bielefeld, promoted back to the second tier after winning the 3. Liga, will line up in a 4-1-2-3 formation under coach Michel Kniat. However, they will be without their Latvian striker Roberts Uldrikis, who is out for the season due to injury.
On the other hand, Fortuna Düsseldorf, coached by Daniel Thioune, missed promotion last season but have shown strong form in preseason. They have not conceded a goal in their last two tests, scoring a total of seven goals. The team has also made some important summer transfers, although they have lost key players as well, leaving their squad somewhat weaker but still competitive with new signings from clubs like Sporting CP, Zwolle, Young Boys, and Ajax.
Historically, Fortuna Düsseldorf has dominated this fixture, not losing since 2017 and winning three of the last four competitive matches against Bielefeld. The atmosphere is expected to be strong, with a 27,000-capacity crowd at the Schüco Arena.
Prediction and analysis suggest that this game may feature over 2.5 goals, reflecting the attacking styles and recent scoring form of both teams.
The first matchday for Fortuna Düsseldorf was preceded by the official season opener held in the Hofgarten last Sunday, attracting nearly 15,000 fans. The excitement among Fortuna Düsseldorf fans is palpable as they eagerly await the start of the new season.
So, buckle up and stay tuned to the live ticker for all the latest updates on Fortuna Düsseldorf's journey in the 2025/26 2. Bundesliga season.
