Expected score: Dusseldorf 3-2 Ravensburg
Dusseldorf host Ravensburg in DEL 2 on 15 November, a clash between the league's runaway leaders and a struggling visitor. The hosts sit top with 35 points from 14 games, while Ravensburg languish in 12th on 18 points. This is a mismatch on paper, and the gulf in quality should tell.
Team form
Dusseldorf
Dusseldorf have been ruthless. They won all five of their last matches, scoring 17 goals and conceding just 4 across those games. That 3.4 goals per game average shows an attack firing on all cylinders. Most recently they hammered Weiden 5-1 at home, and before that beat Starbulls Rosenheim 3-1 away. They also beat Ravensburg 2-1 back on 25 September, so they know exactly how to handle this opponent. There is no sign of fatigue or complacency in their recent record.
Ravensburg
Ravensburg's form is chaotic. They have won just one of their last five—a 5-3 victory over Bietigheim/Bissingen—but lost three times in that stretch. They conceded 20 goals across those five games, averaging 4.0 per match, which is alarming. They lost 6-3 to Landshut, 4-3 to Weiden, and 5-2 to Dresdner Eislowen. Even when they score, they leak goals at an alarming rate. Ravensburg's defence is a liability, and they are coming into this fixture in poor shape.
Head-to-head
Dusseldorf beat Ravensburg 2-1 in their head-to-head meeting on 25 September. The hosts controlled that game and won comfortably. There is no recent history of Ravensburg troubling Dusseldorf.
Key factors
Dusseldorf's offensive depth is the standout factor. They have scored 17 goals in five games and show no sign of slowing down. Ravensburg's defence cannot cope with high-tempo attacks—they have conceded 20 goals in five outings and will struggle to contain the hosts' forwards. Dusseldorf also have the psychological edge, having already beaten Ravensburg this season. The visitors' inconsistency—one win in five—suggests they lack the resilience needed to compete at this level. Ravensburg's only win came against a mid-table side; they have no recent scalp that would inspire confidence here.
Prediction
Dusseldorf are clear favourites. They lead the league, have won five straight, and have already beaten Ravensburg this season. The hosts' attack is prolific and their recent form is immaculate. Ravensburg, by contrast, are leaking goals and winning sporadically. The visitors' defence will be exposed by Dusseldorf's intensity and quality. While Ravensburg can score—they averaged 3.4 goals per game recently—they cannot match the hosts' firepower or defensive solidity. Dusseldorf should dominate this match.
Back Dusseldorf to win. The hosts are the clear favourites and should have too much quality for a Ravensburg side in freefall. Expect a confident home victory.
