Our prediction for this Bundesliga 2 match:
Following a goalless draw with Eintracht Braunschweig, Schalke 04 will look to return to winning ways in 2. Bundesliga when they take on Nurnberg on Matchday 19. Die Knappen aim to escape the danger zone and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against the Bavarians. Mauro Zalazar remains on the sidelines with injury, while both Amin Younes and Janik Bachmann are major doubts and the duo will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
The Bavarians, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Braunschweig and Karlsruher. Nurnberg have been impressive at home ground of late, but given their ups and downs on the road, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Florian Flick is widely expected to return to Nurnberg’s starting XI, while fellow forward Mahir Emreli serves a one-game ban.
Highlighted Team (Schalke):

Schalke 04 are a professional football club founded in 1904. Die Knappen (The Miners) compete in German Bundesliga and they have won seven domestic titles. Schalke have clinched five German Cup trophies as well, while lifting the UEFA Cup title in 1997. The German club defeated Italian side Inter on penalties in the title game and that was the last time the final of the competition was played in a two-legged format.
Schalke 04 play their home matches at Veltins-Arena, the stadium that has been the home of the team since 2001. The capacity of Veltins-Arena is 62,271. It is well known that Borussia Dortmund are Schalke’s main rivals and the Ruhy neighbours face each other in the Revierderby.
The likes of Klaus Fichtel (477), Norbert Nigbur (355), Rolf Russmann (304), Klaus Fischer (295), Olaf Thon (295) and Herbert Lutkebohmert (286) are the players with most appearances for die Knappen. The colour of Schalke’s home kit is blue.
