THE PREDICTION
It has been a tough start to the season for both of these teams but they enjoyed wins in the league last weekend. Schalke will go to Moscow focusing on keeping things tight while 5 of Lokomotiv's last 6 games in this competition have seen under 2.5 goals so expect that trend to continue here.
