Schalke Preview – Can Schalke gain first win of season?
It’s been a woeful season so far for Saturday’s hosts, Schalke, who already look doomed to relegation from the Bundesliga despite the campaign only being at the halfway stage as the hosts sit rock-bottom of the German top flight with just four points to their name.
Schalke find themselves seven points adrift of fourth from bottom outfit, Koln, and the hosts are still waiting to register their first win of the season as they seek to avoid a fourth defeat on the trot this weekend.
Six defeats out of their last seven matches have condemned Schalke to bottom of the pile and it’s hard to see how they’ll get themselves out of their current predicament as the bigger picture shows that Schalke have now failed to win any of their last 30 matches overall in the Bundesliga.
Hoffenheim Preview – Can Hoffenheim pick up easy three points?
Although Hoffenheim have also had their own problems of late in the German top flight, the visitors will fancy their chances of returning to winning ways this Saturday against a floundering Schalke outfit and they may not get a better chance of a win than here today.
Three defeats out of their last four matches have seen Hoffenheim lose to Bayer Leverkusen, RB Leipzig and Freiburg, all of whom occupy places in the top half of the Bundesliga, but Hoffenheim did register a 2-1 win at M’gladbach last time out on their travels.
With just three defeats out of their last 14 matches on the road and being unbeaten in their last four meetings against Schalke, Hoffenheim look the more likely to take the spoils here.
