Schalke 04, Recent FormThis Schalke 04 side will be full of confidence going into this match against Paderborn 07, having recorded a 3-1 home win against St. Pauli in their last league match. They achieved 43% possession in that match and had 14 strikes at goal, with 5 hitting the target, up against St. Pauli's tally of 6 efforts at goal, 3 of which were on target.
When it comes to attacking power Karel Geraerts will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 6 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 9 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games.
Being unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 league matches at Veltins-Arena, suggests a consistent run of home form, especially when we consider that 4 of these results were wins.
Goalscorer Kenan Karaman will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Schalke 04.
Paderborn 07, Recent FormPaderborn 07 manager Lukas Kwasniok will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 0-0 draw in his team's last league outing against Magdeburg. In that game they had 45% possession and managed 16 attempts on goal, with 5 on target, compared to Magdeburg who had 4 attempts and 1 on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 8, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 9 goals and some valuable points in the process. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games.
They have had a strong run of away form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games on the road and picking up 4 wins along the way.
Filip Bilbija will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Paderborn 07.
It was not a positive ending for Schalke 04 last time they met Paderborn 07 in the league, with the game ending in a 3-1 defeat.
Schalke will feel sure their attacking prowess will yield results in this one, having scored at least 1 goal in the previous 7 encounters with Paderborn.
In this away league fixture, Paderborn has not won in the last 3 times they have played Schalke at Veltins-Arena.
With only Timo Baumgartl (COVID-19) and Dominick Drexler (Illness) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Karel Geraerts will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
Paderborn manager Lukas Kwasniok has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
