Schalke v Eintracht Frankfurt Team News

After going on a stellar five-game unbeaten run in the league, Schalke failed to extend that streak to six on the trot following their narrow 2-1 loss to Bayer Leverkusen. Lucas Alario turned savior for Leverkusen, firing two goals past the Royal Blues’ goalie.

In truth, David Wagner’s side were far off their best in that fixture, conjuring a measly three shots on goal throughout the game as opposed to their opponents who managed more than thrice that number.

Despite the narrow loss, Die Koingsblauen still find themselves among the Bundesliga top-4 committee, which is considered an elite group. Champions League football is there for the taking and the players will be aiming at securing a spot at the competition come the end of the season.

Meanwhile, Eintracht Frankfurt have been utterly miserable in recent weeks. They have not tasted success in any of their last four Bundesliga clashes, the most recent of which ended in a disappointing one-all draw against relegation-threatened Hertha Berlin.

As bad as their overall form has been, their away form has been much worse, with the club managing a single win from their preceding six outings. They will be making the trip to Veltins Arena on the back of a three-game losing streak away from home.

In sharp contrast, the home side have not been at the receiving end of a defeat in any of their last six games at the Veltins Arena. They have turned this ground something of a fortress this season, even top European teams scared shitless whilst heading out the stadium’s tunnel.

Taking a closer look at their away form, David Wagner’s side have salvaged no more than a point in three of their last four matchups at home. They also failed to clinch maximum points against this foe in their previous game on this ground.

Furthermore, for all their struggles this season on the road, Die Adler have shown a fighting spirit in their outings, despite tasting success just once so far. They have registered seven goals from their last six away games this season.

Goals have not been hard to come by for the visitors, even though victories have. They have had their names on the scoresheet in three of their past four visits here.

Schalke vs Eintracht Frankfurt Predictions

It goes without saying that Eintracht Frankfurt are overwhelming underdogs heading into this fixture versus in-form Schalke. The home side will be hoping their supporters can roar them to success against this rather weak opponent.

Schalke are definitely clinching all three points in this fixture, without a doubt. However, given the visitors goalscoring exploits in recent games, they should have enough about themselves to grab a consolation.
