Prediction: 2-0
Nurnberg
After suffering a heavy 3-0 loss to Eintracht in Frankfurt, Schalke 04 will be looking to return to winning ways in Bundesliga when they host Nurnberg at their VELTINS-Arena. Die Knappen have been producing thrilling displays in the Champions League this term, but playing on three fronts seems to be the main problem for the team at the moment. It is well known that Schalke are a real force to be reckoned with at home and seeing that they are eager to escape the danger zone, we predict that they are going to pick up all three points from Saturday’s football game against Nurnberg. Der Ruhmreiche failed to impress in a 2-0 loss to Stuttgart on Matchday and that is yet another reason why home win should be considered. When the two teams met in Gelsenkirchen four years ago Schalke rolled over Nurnberg 4-0.
