IT'S cup night in Germany and the second-round action offers hope for goal hunters.

The top two in the second tier both try to land an upset against Bundesliga opposition and could make life difficult for the big boys.

First up, Fortuna Dusseldorf are top of the Bundesliga 2 and have won five in a row and eight of their last nine. They host a Borussia Monchengladbach side battered 5-1 at home to Leverkusen at the weekend and whose four away outings average more than four goals a game.

Next it's Holstein Kiel, second in the Bundlesiga 2 and with nine wins from their last 10 in all competitions. They're pretty lethal on the road, netting at least twice in all five matches with a total haul of 16 goals.

They should be able to get on the scoresheet at Mainz who sit 12th in the top flight and have kept just one clean sheet in five at home.

So there's decent potential for goals in both ties and I'm putting up both as singles.

Fortuna Dusseldorf v Monchengladbach (5.30pm)
