(Düsseldorf, 2026-02-13 01:47:00) — A survey of Fortuna Düsseldorf supporters indicates overwhelming confidence that Friday the 13th will not hinder the team’s performance against Münster.
The poll, conducted among fans, shows 92.3% believe “Even Friday the 13th can’t stop Fortuna,” as the team prepares for a carnival kick-off match against visitors from Münsterland.
- Nearly 93% of Fortuna Düsseldorf fans surveyed are optimistic about the team’s chances despite the match falling on Friday the 13th.
- The team is preparing to face Münsterland in a carnival kick-off match.
- Several players’ availability remains uncertain, including Lunddal, Ljubicic, and Jordi II.
- The survey results come as the team acknowledges a challenging match ahead against a historically strong opponent.
The survey, which garnered 13 votes, revealed that 12 respondents believe Fortuna will succeed despite the superstitious date, while only one person expressed a different sentiment. The remaining options in the poll – “Tough food” and “Die Rache by Jorrit Hendrix” – received zero votes each.
Match Preview
The upcoming match welcomes guests from the Münsterland region for this year’s carnival kick-off. According to a post shared by Fortuna6095, a gameday emergency plug author, neither the SR (referee) nor the VAR (video assistant referee) will be in action for League 1 or 2 matches this weekend.
Player availability is a key concern. Lunddal is reportedly fit to start, but the status of Ljubicic remains uncertain due to illness, and Jordi II may be able to participate. Münster is described as a difficult opponent, often securing draws, and the match is expected to be played in wet conditions.
The author emphasized the need for concentration, a high pass rate, and avoiding transitional moments. Itten and El Azzouzi are mentioned as potential players to watch. The author also expressed hope for a three-point victory to improve the team’s standing in the league table.
Why It Matters
This survey, while small in sample size, offers a snapshot of the positive mindset within the Fortuna Düsseldorf fanbase heading into a crucial match. The team currently faces a precarious position in the league table, and a win against Münster would provide a significant boost in confidence and points. The author’s emphasis on tactical discipline – high pass rate, avoiding transitions – suggests a pragmatic approach to overcoming a historically challenging opponent. The mention of the absence of VAR and SR adds a layer of unpredictability to the match, potentially increasing the importance of on-field decision-making and player composure.
