THE PREDICTION
As expected, Eintracht Frankfurt proved too strong for Schalke 04 at the weekend and the likelihood is that it will be a similar story here as RB Leipzig travel to Gelsenkirchen. Whilst home advantage gives hope to Schalke, ultimately the Leipzig squad boasts so much class that it will be difficult for them to compete and Marco Rose’s side will look to dominate possession and overwhelm the hosts with their attacking quality. A closer encounter should be in prospect compared to Schalke’s 3-0 defeat in Frankfurt, but RB Leipzig have to be favoured for victory.
