Schalke take on the visitors Hoffenheim in the round 10 match of German Bundesliga. The match will be played on Friday, October 14th at Veltins Arena (Gelsenkirchen).
Schalke is limited to rather modest tasks so far. The "Cobalt" are clearly not among the giants. But they have a rather glorious history, and quite recently, under Domenico Tedesco, they managed to climb to the place of vice-champion of Germany. However, further there were anti-records, and a natural fall to Bundesliga 2. Having returned in one season thanks to the work of a new mentor, Frank Kramer, so far the team is focused on maintaining positions in Bundesliga 1. It turns out not in the best way. The first victory came only on the 6th round, when on September 10 they defeated the crisis Bochum. After that there were defeats - in the "Ruhr derby" Borussia (Dortmund), Augsburg. And in the last round, Xabi Alonso started at Leverkusen as Bayer's manager with a 4-0 thrashing of the newcomers to the division.

Hoffenheim hopes to improve at least this season. The "Peasants" is a German project atypical for Germany, an upstart not loved by everyone, who grew up on the own money of a local billionaire. But at the same time, it is also a successful club that, under Nagelsmann, relatively recently, played in the Champions League. After a couple of frankly mediocre seasons, they finally lost faith in Hoeness and returned Breitenreiter to their homeland, which won the Swiss championship with Zurich last season. There is no such sensational breakthrough at the new location, although the results are relatively good. True, it is embarrassing that after an abundance of victories, the club from Sinsheim issued only draws with Freibrug and Hertha. Recently they lost to Werder at home, having conceded the decisive goal from the penalty spot in the 87th minute!
The season before last, before the departure of Schalke to the Bundesliga 2, the parties exchanged home victories. And then the clubs scored 4 goals in their arena against the guests. The case when both clubs do not shine. We recommend that you stop when betting on a match on a neutral option in the form of "over 2.5 goals".
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
