Bundesliga: Collins’ Paderborn Continue Relegation Fight Against Dusseldorf

Super Eagles defender Jamilu Collins will look to play a key role as SC Paderbon face Fortuna Dusseldorf in Saturday’s Bundesliga clash.

Germany’s top flight has been on hold for more than two months due to the coronavirus outbreak, but the action will resume this weekend, and Collins as well as his teammates will be determined to pick up a win.

Paderborn, currently sit bottom of the Bundesliga, having only picked up 16 points from their 25 matches during the 2019-20 campaign.

Just four wins and 17 defeats from their 25 league matches is an indication of their struggles, and they are 10 points off 15th-placed Mainz, meaning that the basement outfit will need some run between now and the end of the campaign in order to secure their status as a Bundesliga club.

Paderborn actually lost all four of their league matches before the action was postponed, while they have picked up just one victory in 2020, which was a 2-0 success at Freiburg on January 25.

Steffen Baumgart’s men will need maximum points from this game to boost their survival hopes.

Collins has scored one goal in 21 league appearances for Paderborn this season.
