FC Koln vs Schalke Prediction & Betting tips
An intense duel and with situations will be the one that hold “white” and “blue” for this date of the competition. In the previous one, the visit leaves as a favorite because of its greater individual and collective hierarchy. However, if we consider that the place is playing all or nothing to save itself from the descent, we believe that it will risk. Faced with this reality and knowing that Schalke knows how to stand as a visitor, we believe that the bet “plus 1.5 goals” is attractive to bet.
Cologne :
The Cologne campaign is not being good, showing it by adding 21 points and placing in the last position of the championship. It comes from losing 2-1 to Hertha Berlin, leaving 9 of the Promotion. If he wants to stay alive in this fight, he needs to beat the tournament escort and hope that Friburgo goes badly. Apparently so far is an eleven that it costs to score and defend well (worst defense of the entire Bundesliga).

At the moment it is showing itself as an ordered and effective eleven between the lines, managing to win 4 of its last 5 presentations. Halfway through the week he played against Eintracht Frankfurt for the DFB Pokal semifinal (0-1 home defeat and elimination of the tournament).
Outside of Gelsenkirchen, Schalke has obtained different scores, engineering them to score thanks to his collective style (7 wins, 3 parities and 5 trips, scoring 22 goals and conceding 19 in his goal).
