Season ticket holders at VELTINS-Arena haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Schalke 04 languishing in the 18th position so far. The guesting Borussia M'gladbach will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
- Schalke 04 have the fewest scored goals (16) in Bundesliga
- Borussia M'gladbach is in the worst form (0-1-5)
The visiting Borussia M'gladbach played their last game only four days ago, a Champions League match. That game, against Manchester City, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Borussia M'gladbach.
Schalke 04 form and stats
With 1 Bundesliga win, 3 draws and 9 defeats from their home games, Schalke 04, who have the fewest scored goals (16) in Bundesliga, are certainly not brimming with confidence. All in all it has been a very rough period for Schalke who hasn’t won a league-game in their last ten attempts. Their previous win was against Hoffenheim, 70 days ago.
Schalke 04 haven't scored a league goal since they found the net 230 minutes ago. S. Kolasinac scored that one.
In their previous game, the manager D. Grammozis led his Schalke to a defeat in the Bundesliga match away at Wolfsburg. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at VELTINS-Arena. The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 0-0 versus Mainz 05.
Schalke 04 were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.
Schalke aren't scoring a lot here at VELTINS-Arena in the league, with only 8 goals from 13 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Schalke are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (26 from 13 played).
Borussia M'gladbach form and stats
3 wins, 5 draws and 4 losses. That’s the product of Borussia M'gladbach playing as the away team in the Bundesliga this season. With the M'gladbach losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Borussia M'gladbach are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.
M'gladbach lost away at Manchester City (0-2) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. It was a Bundesliga defeat before that one as the away game against Augsburg wasn't a success with a 1-3 loss.
M'gladbach has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 21 goals from 12 games. M'gladbach have conceded 24 goals in these games.
