THE PREDICTION
After suffering a surprise defeat in their first league match, Schalke 04 got their 2. Bundesliga campaign firmly underway with a commanding 0-3 win away at Holstein Kiel and their fans will be expecting a good performance at home here against Erzgebirge Aue. The visitors are coming off the back of successive 0-0 draws in the 2. Bundesliga and will no doubt set up to try and frustrate Schalke, keeping bodies consistently behind the ball, maintaining a solid shape and soaking up pressure with a view to potential hitting their opponents on the counter attack. However, the hosts will have been boosted hugely by their comprehensive win last time out in the league where their offensive play really stood out Ultimately, this Schalke frontline is expected to find a way past Erzgebirge Aue and secure a second successive league win.
