Schalke 04, Recent FormSchalke 04 will be reasonably happy to come away from their match against Hannover 96 with a 1-1 draw and a valuable point. In that game they had 41% possession and managed 11 attempts on goal, with 5 on target, compared to Hannover 96 who had 9 attempts and 3 on target.
Their boss Karel Geraerts is sure to be taking a close look at his defence, who have given away 13 goals over the last 6 matches and yet amazingly still managed to collect some valuable points during this poor defensive spell due to their 9 goals scored. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
There will be mixed feelings from Die Königsblauen, although undefeated in their last 5 league games at home, 2 of these games ended in a draw.
Nurnberg, Recent FormCristian Fiél will have some work to do building up his players after their 4-0 home thrashing at the hands of Holstein Kiel. Their share of possession in that meeting was 29%, while racking up 6 shots along the way, 1 of which were on target. Holstein Kiel had 23 shots on goal with 8 on target.
Having lost 12 goals in their past 6 matches, Fiél will surely be casting a critical eye over his defensive line, even though his team managed to pick up some points along the way due to the 7 goals they scored. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games; however, away from home this season, they have scored in 12 of their 14 games played.
Their current form can't be viewed positively, having clocked up 3 losses from their last 6 games and only 2 wins to speak of.
Goalscorer Can Uzun will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 4 goals in his last 6 league matches for Nurnberg.
In the last league encounter between these sides, it was Nurnberg who ended up empty-handed, losing 1-2 to Schalke 04.
The Der Club defence has struggled at Veltins-Arena, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 14 visits. In their last 3 away league games against Die Königsblauen, Nurnberg have conceded a total of 13 goals and that's an average of 4.33 per game.
Schalke has had a good run of league results at home to Nurnberg, winning their last 5 meetings and being unbeaten in their last 14.
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.
Nurnberg manager Cristian Fiél has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
