Schalke hosts Stuttgart in round 6 of German Bundesliga. The match will be played on Friday, October 30th at Veltins Arena (Gelsenkirchen)
Schalke may well claim to be the weakest team in Germany now. It is going through a crisis that is already considered the deepest in history. This was confirmed by an anti-record streak without victories. It has been running since January. And it has continued, despite the start of a new season and even a change of coach. Another failure happened in the Ruhr Derby, which is considered the most principled in the Bundesliga. This time Schalke didn’t manage to compete with Borussia in the derby at all. Not a single accurate shot, only three attempts to shoot, and only 25% of the time in terms of ball possession. At first, the Miners managed to at least restrain the attacks of the Yellow-Blacks, but it was so only until the first goal conceded. It happened at the 55th minute, after which Manuel Baum's men simply tore off once again. Schalke has only one point after five games with a goal difference of 2-19. It’s even strange that not the representative of Gelsenkirchen is the last in the standings, but Mainz does not have a single point.

Stuttgart has experienced a lot in recent years - from the champion’s title to relegation to the Bundesliga 2, which happened more than once. Fortunately, the Swabians managed not to stay in a lower division for a long time and gained a new promotion. This is how the last season passed for them, when the Italian-American specialist Pellegrino Matarazzo quite confidently took the 2nd place. And most importantly, Stuttgart looks very good in the Bundesliga. The team lost only in the first round, when it started to fight against Freiburg only after the break but did not make a comeback - everything ended with a 2-3 score. Interestingly, away matches were much better. The newcomer of the division has a 100% record in this respect - 4-1 with Mainz and 2-0 with Hertha. After the defeat to Freiburg, Stuttgart had two draws with the same 1-1 score. However, taking a point with motivated and strong Bayer was a good result. Then Kalaidzic once again scored and proved that he looks like the leader of the team. The 23-year-old striker has three goals and two assists.
Bookmakers consider Stuttgart to be the favorite of this pair this time. It really looks confident away, so we agree that the Swabians should win in the upcoming match, especially since the condition of the hosts is simply terrible.
Prediction for the match: Stuttgart to win
