RB Leipzig Schalke 04 betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This game tends to be somewhat unbalanced, as the home team has a superior squad and campaigns much better than the opponent which has only average squad, has not yet found itself in the league and struggles to get away from the last positions. In addition, RB Leipzig comes from 3 consecutive home victories having scored 11 goals and suffered only 2 while Schalke 04 lost 3 of its 4 away games and the only victory was against the competition's last placed. In view of these factors, we believe that RB Leipzig will make use of the great strength it has at its stadium to conquer the 3 points.

In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 27 of the last 28 matches have ended with Over 1,5 goals.

RB Leipzig is making a good campaign in the Bundesliga, is going through a good phase adding 7 games without losing and is looking for 3 more points to try to reduce the 5-point gap to the leader Borussia Dortmund. The team is characterized by a good balance between the offensive and defensive sectors, having scored 16 goals, being the fourth best attack of the competition, and suffered only 9 goals, having the fifth less leaked defense, so much that only conceded 1 goal in the last 4 rounds. Playing at home, such as this Sunday's match, RB Leipzig makes a great campaign with 4 games of invincibility, comes from 3 consecutive victories and it is worth mentioning that it scored 11 goals and suffered only 2 in these 3 matches, again showing the strength of both its defense of its attack, especially at its stadium.
For the game against Schalke 04, coach Rangnick will not be able to count on Konaté and Demme, both on account of injury.

Analysis Schalke 04

The away team is currently in the 16th position of the league, with 6 points won, after 2 wins and 6 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in an away match against Fortuna Düsseldorf, by (0‑2). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Werder Bremen, by (0‑2). In their last match, for the UEFA Champions League, they got an away tie against Galatasaray by (0‑0). In the last 4 away league matches Schalke 04 has a record of 1 win and 3 losses, so they have won 3 points out of 12 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 6 of the last 8 matches for this competition. This is a team that has had a hard time trying to score first. They have opened up the score in only 2 of the last 8 matches for the Bundesliga, they have reached half‑time in front in 1 of those 2 matches and held on to the lead until the end of the 90' in all of them. In 8 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 6 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 8 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 3 of their 7 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Schalke 04 makes a much lower than expected campaign in the Bundesliga, being the team that lost most after 8 rounds and is seeking recovery to try to leave the last positions. The team has an average defense that has conceded 11 goals and is the eighth least leaked of the competition, but the big problem is its inefficient attack that scored only 5 goals in 8 games and is the second worst of the competition, having not scored goals in 3 of the last 5 rounds.
Playing away from home, such as this Sunday's match, Schalke 04 added 3 losses and 1 victory and this triumph was against the very weak and last placed Fortuna Düsseldorf, evidencing the enormous difficulty to play away from home.
For the game with RB Leipzig, coach Tedesco will not be able to count on Mascarell due to injury.

Confirmed Lineup: Alexander Nübel, Hamza Mendyl, Matija Nastasić, Salif Sané, Benjamin Stambouli, Daniel Caligiuri, Weston McKennie, Suat Serdar, Nabil Bentaleb, Mark Uth, Breel Embolo.
Coach: K. Geraerts.
