Schalke vs RB Leipzig Prediction & Betting tips
Schalke 04 was knocked out of the EL on Thursday. Sunday a new match is waiting for Die Königsblauen. RB Leipzig is coming to visit in Gelsenkirchen. The number two of the rankings is in top form – S04 is thus warned.
Schalke :
Schalke 04 knew that Thursday was a difficult task. The defeat against Ajax Amsterdam was lost without chance (2-0), and it was due to Ralf Fährmann that the team had another chance at the semi-finals. In the return, Schalke started out furiously and was unlucky not to get ahead. However, in the second half it became fast 2-0, and when Ajax had to finish with ten men, it looked sunny for Schalke. The 3-0 also fell in the first half of the extension, but then Schalke got the lid on the nose (3-2). The contest was indicative of the club’s season, in which it did not really turn a moment.
After the match of Thursday, the visor soon had to return to the Bundesliga. Trainer Markus Weinzierl tried to approach the business optimistically. “We must show the same face on Sunday as in the match against Ajax,” the coach said. “We need to see which players we have available for that,” he went on. The 120-minute match has left its marks in the selection. Sead Kolasinac, who was picked up for the match on Thursday, is likely to be out for the league match. However, Coke, non-playable, can participate in the EL, Sunday.
Probable setup Schalke 04
Fährmann – Coke, Höwedes, Nastasic, Aogo – Goretzka, Bentaleb – Schöpf, Meyer, Caligiuri – Burgstaller
RB Leipzig :
After a short-lived phase, RB Leipzig is back in the winning mood. Due to four wins in succession, the PhD student has a second hand in second place. For a long time, it seemed a decline, but the team from Saxony has picked up the thread again. Last week SC Freiburg was sent back home by Die Roten Bullen 4-0. What also helps in the performance curve is that Leipzig currently has a nearly empty sick bow. Only long-suffering Lukas Klostermann is still not there.
Trainer Ralph Hasenhüttl talked about the coming game in Gelsenkirchen and had promising words for a player who is not so aware. “We travel with great confidence to Gelsenkirchen,” he stamped a little open door. “Diego Demme has made a nice development. I do not see limits to what he can achieve, “the coach was so fond of the little midfielder who, like many other players, last year in the 2nd league. Leipzig has the image of a poetry club, but the arrangements that are being played this year do not differ much from that of last season.
Probable setup RasenBallsport Leipzig
