Schalke 04 Borussia M'gladbach betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most probable scenario for this match is for both teams to score at least one goal. These two teams have a very offensive play style, so we expect an open game with a lot of goal scoring opportunities for both teams. Besides, despite Schalke being a favorite, we believe that a bet towards the number of goals should be of great value.
