Schalke vs Augsburg Prediction & Betting tips
Schalke 04 will host FC Augsburg on Sunday. What can we expect from this competition?
Schalke 04:
Schalke 04 won a victory last week that gave a moderate season some luster. The unexpected 2-4 win at the neighbors of Borussia Dortmund was one of two birds with one stone. Die Königsblauen themselves took a major step towards enforcement, while the rivals were hit hard in the battle for the league title. The euphoria was great in Gelsenkirchen. However, because VfB Stuttgart also won, enforcement is not yet entirely certain.
Schalke is in fifteenth place, with six points more than Stuttgart. If that team leaves points on Saturday in the away game against Hertha BSC, then Schalke can secure itself with a victory on Sunday. “We showed what we can do to Dortmund. That should give us confidence, “said Huub Stevens on the S04 club site. Largely the same names are still on the absentee list. Salif Sane is a doubt case for Sunday.
FC Augsburg:
FC Augsburg is close to the highest level due to a good intermediate sprint, just like Schalke. For small Augsburg this is of course a better performance than for Schalke. For Die Fuggerstädter, non-relegation is always the primary seasonal goal. It looks like this will succeed for the eighth year in a row, after the promotion of 2011. Augsburg is now at 31 points from just as many competitions.
Last week, the team went down hard. In the home game against Bayer Leverkusen, FCA stepped home with a 1-4 defeat. Augsburg could barely make a fist and was clearly the underlying party. “We want to prevent it from getting exciting in the final game,” coach Martin Schmidt said about the relegation battle in which his team is engaged. “We saw how crazy the Bundesliga was last week, when all the low-ranked teams won.”
