THE PREDICTION
The next stop for Schalke 04 in their dramatic recent revival is a trip to Augsburg, whose excellent home record makes this an extremely tough encounter for the visitors. Augsburg have won all four of their Bundesliga fixtures played at WWK Arena since the winter break, conceding just one goal in the process, but Schalke themselves have transformed their backline in recent weeks and come into this one on the back of three consecutive away clean sheets. When you take into account the recent defensive record of both sides, goals should be at a premium between the two and backing under 2.5 goals scored in this one has to be favoured.
