Borussia are among main contenders for the Europa League title. They were hosting the first leg of the quarterfinals on Thursday (1-1) and that exhausting match will have influence on team’s lineup and conditions in the upcoming derby. However, matches of previous round didn’t stop Borussia from winning Bundesliga matches that were following eurocup clashes. At the same time, we should mention that all three defeats Borussia suffered were recorded on the road.
Werder have proven that Borussia can be threatened even at their own Signal Iduna Park by the team from bottom half of the standings. On the other hand, Schalke play well at home but show quite inconsistent results and lack balance. It’s hard to pick a side in this matchup but it’s likely both teams can net at least once.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score – yes.
