Schalke 04 welcome the visitors Eintracht Frankfurt in the German Bundesliga – Round 28. The match will be held on Saturday, April, 6th, at the Veltins Arena (Gelsenkirchen).
The hosting Schalke 04 keep up their survival fight, having left their last-season performance somewhere in the past. The side presently extended their buffer from the relegation zone to 10 points, they sit 6 points off the playoffs, but Stuttgart will hardly manage to cover this gap. Therefore, the hosts’ placement is safe so far. As for the coming clash with Eintracht Frankfurt, considering Schalke’s present form, they are not likely to attain any points there. Before the last round against Hannover 96 who they won by a minimum margin, the homeside featured 4 consecutive defeats and an 8-match winless streak (2 draws, 6 losses). Thus, their latest form does not provide for a proper opposition to the guests. We should also bear in mind that Schalke face a cup encounter against the plucky Werder and will put much effort into it. Hence, the hosts have little time for rest and preparation for the coming fixture.

The visiting Eintracht Frankfurt played their best to break into the Champions League quartet and succeeded. Now they find themselves in the top-four after they replaced Borussia Monchengladbach and got 2 points ahead of them. The guests will certainly look to detach from the 5th line, and their travel to the Gelsenkirchen presents a good opportunity to do so. This calendar year, Frankfurt did not suffer a loss (6 wins, 4 draws). They demonstrate confident and entertaining performance, boasting a tally of 54 goals made – only Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund scored more. Defenswise, the team are same strong and feature one of the best division’s record (30 goals missed). Frankfurt have enough time for rest and preparation for the Saturday meeting with Schalke, they are on the go and will be keen on attaining points to solidify their Champions League position.
The clash will see a meeting of the 2 sides whose form is totally different these days. Whenever Schalke rack up points, this happens against lowly opponents, now they host Frankfurt from top-four who may end 3rd at the finish of the campaign (the visitors miss 3 points so far). The hosts will find it challenging to withstand Frankfurt, considering their issues in defense and the guests’ blistering attack. Still, we prefer to play safe and add a zero handicap to our prediction of the Frankfurt’s win.
Prediction for the match: Eintracht Frankfurt to win with a 0.0 handicap.
