THE PREDICTION
Confidence is likely to be high among the Schalke 04 camp without them having secured their first league victory of the season last Saturday. However, that win was against rock-bottom Bochum and a trip to Borussia Dortmund is a far stronger level of opposition. The hosts are likely still smarting after their comprehensive 3-0 beating at the hands of RB Leipzig and they are expected to come out of the traps very fast in this game. With the attacking players at their disposal, BVB should fashion plenty of opportunities and will ultimately overwhelm the Schalke defence, ultimately emerging victorious.
