THE PREDICTION

League leaders Jahn Regensburg are now the only side to boast a perfect 2. Bundesliga record after three games with nine points acquired. However, they now embark on arguably their toughest challenge yet as they welcome relegated Schalke 04 to Jahnstadion. When factoring in the individual quality among the Schalke first team squad, the hosts will have to put in a very strong defensive performance here and show why they are also the only team yet to concede a goal in the second tier of German football. Whilst Schalke have the firepower to change that, they may have to temper any attacking intent, knowing that any mistakes will see them ruthlessly punished by the hosts. This should lead to a very tight contest, with clear cut chances at a premium and under 2.5 goals scored is expected.
