51'

That should have been 2-0

Münster win the ball and Bouchama suddenly finds himself completely free. He runs towards Kastenmeier and tries to slot the ball into the right corner, but Kastenmeier anticipates it and saves the shot.

Half-time in Münster

Münster are surprisingly leading against the table-toppers from Düsseldorf. The goal was also the only shot on target from the home side. Düsseldorf are clearly more active in attack, but simply can't get the ball over the line. The match is wide open.

No takers

Klaus is sent deep on the right wing and then crosses to the far post. There's no one there to receive it, so the ball rolls out of play.

Deflected shot

Klaus has some space 20 metres in front of the goal, advances a couple more paces and then takes a shot. His attempt is deflected off a Münster player's leg and is easily caught by Schenk.
34'

Vermeij!

The Dutchman has a great chance to equalise! Klaus crosses from the right side, Vermeij gets his head to the ball at the far post, but puts it centimetres wide of the left post!
31'

Nearly 2-0!

Fortuna lose the ball during build-up play and then it all happens quickly. Németh is played through with a through ball, and he gets a free shot from about 12 metres out on the right side of the penalty area! Kastenmeier saves, and then the flag goes up as well.

Plenty of possession

In this opening period, Preußen have more possession and at times are pushing Düsseldorf deep into their own half. However, they lack a cutting edge in front of goal.
3'

First glimpse

The home side play a long ball into the opposition penalty area. It's blocked but falls to Makridis, who immediately shoots from 15 metres out. However, his attempt hits an opponent's leg so poses no threat to the goal.

Three changes for Düsseldorf

Following the 4-3 home defeat against Kaiserslautern, Thioune makes three changes to his team: Rossmann, Niemiec and Kownacki make way for Vermeij, Appelkamp and Klaus.

One change for Preußen

Compared to their last league match, Münster make only one change with Németh starting up top today instead of Friðjónsson.

Fortuna's starting XI

Kastenmeier - Zimmermann, Hoffmann, Oberdorf, Iyoha - Haag, Jóhannesson - Klaus, Appelkamp, van Brederode - Vermeij

Münster's starting XI

Schenk - Ter Horst, Koulis, Frenkert, Kirkeskov - Hendrix, Preisinger - Bouchama, Mees, Makridis - Németh

Thioune's view on Münster

"In Münster, we will once again need what we have managed better away from home than at home so far: A good attitude towards the game and good defending. I think, fundamentally, it's not important which personnel we field, but our attitude on the pitch is what counts."

Hildmann's view on Düsseldorf

"Düsseldorf, the league leaders, are coming as clear favourites. They have won all their away matches so far. However, we want to play for a win. We need to push ourselves to the limit, maybe even overperform, to be able to win."

Relegated despite victory

Back then, the home teams won their respective matches. Preußen won 2-0 in the second half of the season in May 2006, but were still relegated.

A while back

The last time these two former Bundesliga clubs played against each other was in the 2005/06 season back in the then third-tier Regionalliga Nord.

First professional meeting

Münster and Düsseldorf meet for the first time in Germany's top two divisions on Friday evening.
