St. Pauli, Recent FormIn their last league encounter, St. Pauli racked up a stunning 5-1 home win against Holstein Kiel. In that game they had 53% possession and managed 17 attempts on goal, with 7 on target, compared to Holstein Kiel who had 14 attempts and 3 on target.
Although they have only shipped 3 goals in their past 6 matches, they have taken a relatively modest return of points from those games, primarily due to an indifferent return at the other end with 8 goals netted in those 6 matches. They have been unable to score at home in 3 of their last 6 games.
Their strong run of form, both away and at home now gives them an unbeaten streak of 11 games in a row.
Schalke 04, Recent FormHaving taken all 3 points, with a crucial 4-3 home win over Magdeburg in their last league game, Schalke 04 will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work. They came away from that fixture with a 41% share of the possession and clocked up 20 attempts on goal with 10 on target, in comparison to Magdeburg, who managed 11 attempts on goal, 6 of which were on target.
Manager Thomas Reis will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 12 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 11 goals they managed at the other end. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
They've had a bad run of form away from home recently, having lost 4 of their last 6 on the road and managing just 1 win.
On an individual basis, Sebastian Polter will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in Schalke 04's last 6 league games.
Schalke 04 recorded a 3-2 win last time these two sides went head to head in the league.
Die Königsblauen will be confident of finding the net in this one against St. Pauli, with an impressive scoring record of at least 1 goal in their previous 6 encounters between the two sides. Playing at home, St. Pauli have failed to score in 2 of their last 3 league games against Schalke. Schalke have an impressive record of scoring goals against Freibeuter der Liga, with a tally of 13 goals against them in their previous 5 encounters.
With no real injury worries, St. Pauli manager Fabian Hürzeler will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Thomas Reis has a number of injury concerns in his Schalke squad to contend with: Timo Baumgartl (COVID-19), Dominick Drexler (Illness) and Justin Heekeren (Cruciate ligament)
