Schalke 04 – Hannover 96 – Both teams can be satisfied with the championship so far, because their goals have been achieved for now. Schalke is holding the top of the table and will struggle for placement in the Champions League, but they have been defeated in the last round and a long positive series has been interrupted. In the first lap of the season, Hannover went on to win the home field after a slightly worse season, but still in the middle of the table, where they wanted to finish their retirement season in elite. In the first part of the season, Hannover defeated Schalke in the field with 1: 0.

Schalke 04
The first round of championship continuation for Schalke marked the end of a long positive series. It was not these teams in the championship who knew how to defeat 11 wins, plus two cups in the Cup. However, they had laid down the gun at Leipzig and were unable to parry the host even though they had 1: 1 at one point. Before they received the first goal, Fahrmann defended the penalty, and this was supposed to raise his confidence further, but just a few minutes later he capitulated.
Realistically, they did not deserve a point as they are outdated and now they have to turn to this duel. It was expected that the winter reinforcement, Pjaca midfielder, would immediately play, however, Tedesco gave him a chance only in the second half. Surprisingly, Konoplyanka remained on the bench and because they did not play well, perhaps Pjaca would be a starter, as did Konoplyanka, while the outside of the machine was Insua.

Hannover 96
At the very beginning of the season Hannover played very tightly and no one won them in the first six, but then played few games. Later, they fell in shape, however, they were attacked and now this team plays more and again it is not easy to win them. Mainz had a 2: 0 lead in Hannover last round, but in the end it was 3: 2, thanks to a great striker Fullkro, who scored all three goals. Still remembering the last match before the break when Hannover also played in the field with an incredible edge with Bayer score 4: 4.
This means that they have scored seven goals in two games, with the defense having to do better, so they had to bring Elez to stop in the meantime. Coach Breitenreiter made only one change in the first match after the break, and Bakalorz played in the tie line instead of Fossum, who will now play because he hurt Schwegler. Elez is likely to be on the bench again, while still having a large number of players on the list of injured.

Our Prediction: Under 2,5 goals @ 1.72
