Schalke - Dortmund Prediction, Picks and Tips
The derby of the Ruhr finds its protagonists in unequal moments in the Bundesliga. On the one hand Schalke, who little by little was recovering from a terrible start and in the last 5 dates he got 8 points that allowed him to get away from the red zone. The 'blues' were imposed in their two locations against Hannover and Nurenberg, clubs committed to the decline, so you can not talk about a recovery.
Also in recent weeks they lost two of their attackers, Breel Embolo and Mark Uth, both for injuries. While the leader Borussia Dortmund will leave for his fifth consecutive victory in the contest and thus preserve or stretch his advantage - of 7 points - on his escort Monchengladbach. The 'yellows' keep the regularity still outside home condition in which they won 4 previous matches. Look, they have Paco Alcácer on a scoring run. It is a classic and Schalke will hardly yield spaces. Not for something since 2013 does not lose at home to Dortmund.
