MSV Duisburg have had a mixed run lately - they've won a couple, lost a couple and drawn one, so they're in decent but not perfect shape. Verl are struggling more: they haven't won any of their last five games, with three draws and two losses. So Duisburg come into this looking the stronger side.

When these two meet, goals tend to fly in - recent meetings have produced plenty of them, and both teams usually find the net. It looks like an open, lively game rather than a tight, cautious one. Given Verl's poor form and Duisburg's recent wins in this fixture, Duisburg look the more likely to come out on top.
