Prediction: 2-2
Hannover
All eyes will be on Veltins Arena when two old rivals Schalke and Hannover lock horns in the 2. Bundesliga round 26. Die Knappen aim to build on back-to-back wins over Munster and Hertha Berlin and they are must be high on confidence ahead of Friday’s clash. All Drexler, Fahrmann, Hamache, Hojlund, Sylla, and Amoussou-Tchibara are out of contention with injuries for the home team.
Die Roten, on the other hand, head into the match following a 1-1 draw with Eintracht Braunschweig. As Hannover are undefeated in the previous nine league matches, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. Speaking of the away team, defender Sei Muroya misses out through suspension, but there are no fresh injuries ahead of the trip to Gelsenkirchen. The good news for the visitors is that both Leopold and Kunze are back from suspension.
