Greuther Furth welcome Schalke 04 in a 2. Bundesliga game where both teams are in good attacking form but have defensive concerns. As die Knappen have improved offensively since Edin Dzeko's arrival, we predict a 2-1 away win. The Cloverleaves continue to struggle with a long injury list, though they managed a 2-1 win over Arminia Bielefeld. They average 1.4 goals scored per game but concede 2.0, with BTTS in 60% of their matches. Their home form is slightly better (1.8 goals scored per game), but defensive frailties persist.
Schalke travel to Bavaria following a thrilling 5-3 win over Magdeburg, though defender Hasan Kurucay is a major doubt, which could weaken their backline. Schalke are strong offensively, averaging 1.7 goals per match overall and 2.5 at home. Their defensive record is better than Fürth’s, conceding 1.2 per game, but they have let in goals in 50% of away fixtures. January signing Edin Dzeko scored in the last match and could be a key threat. Head-to-head: In 7 meetings, the sides are fairly balanced, with 3 wins for Fürth, 2 draws, and 2 Schalke wins. Most matches are high scoring: 57% have seen BTTS, 57% over 2.5 goals, and 43% over 3.5 goals.
As Both sides score and concede regularly with 57% of H2H matches seeing goals at both ends, Both Teams to Score is our main betting tip for this 2. Bundesliga matchup. Additionally, Over 2.5 goals and Away Win bets seem appealing as Schalke’s firepower and recent form give them an edge despite injury doubts.
This Bundesliga 2 match will be played on Saturday 28 February 2026 at 19:30.
