Karlsruher, Recent FormGrabbing a valuable league point from their recent 1-1 draw against Magdeburg will have been seen as a reasonably decent result for Karlsruher. Their share of possession in that meeting was 36%, while racking up 2 shots along the way, 2 of which were on target, in contrast to Magdeburg, who had 18 shots on goal with 5 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 11 goals and some valuable points in the process. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
Having drawn 2 of their last 6 games they have at least put some points on the table, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
Goalscorer Fabian Schleusener will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Karlsruher.
Schalke 04, Recent FormThe 2-1 home defeat to Hertha BSC will not have sat easily with the Schalke 04 squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. In that game they had 48% possession and managed 16 attempts on goal, with 6 on target, compared to Hertha BSC who had 16 attempts and 4 on target.
Manager Matthias Kreutzer will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 14 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 8 goals they managed at the other end. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 7 games.
Having scored 3 goals in his last 6 league games for Schalke 04, Sebastian Polter will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
In the last match between these two, goals were scored on both sides, with the game ending in a 1-1 draw.
In their previous 4 encounters with Die Königsblauen, Karlsruher have shipped at least one goal in those matches. KSC have struggled for goals when Schalke comes to visit BBBank Wildpark, having scored just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings. Playing away from home, Schalke have kept a clean sheet in 2 of their last 3 league games against Karlsruher.
In the league, Schalke have been unbeaten in the last 4 times they have visited Karlsruher at BBBank Wildpark.
With no real injury worries, Karlsruher manager Christian Eichner will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Matthias Kreutzer 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)
