Schalke 04, Recent FormAn important point secured against Greuther Furth will have left Schalke 04 quite happy with their 2-2 draw. Their share of possession in that meeting was 45%, while racking up 12 shots along the way, 8 of which were on target, in contrast to Greuther Furth, who had 11 shots on goal with 8 on target.
While they have been strong in attack with 14 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 10 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. They have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 home games.
Kenan Karaman will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Schalke 04.
Hamburg, Recent FormHamburg will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 2-0 win in their away outing against Nurnberg. They achieved 62% possession in that match and had 14 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Nurnberg's tally of 12 efforts at goal, 2 of which were on target.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 11 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 9 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 23 games in a row, but they've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games away from home.
Having drawn 3 of their last 6 away games they have at least put some points on the board, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
The Hamburg travelling support have had something to shout about on the road via the goals from Robert Glatzel, who's scored 7 goals in their last 6 league matches away from home.
There was no upset on the cards last time these two sides met; on that occasion, Hamburg produced a comfortable 5-3 victory.
Schalke will be looking to extend their current run of scoring against Die Rothosen having scored at least 1 goal in each of their previous 9 meetings.
In the league, Schalke have not won any of their last 4 meetings with Hamburg.
Schalke manager Karel Geraerts has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Timo Baumgartl (COVID-19), Dominick Drexler (Illness) and Justin Heekeren (Cruciate ligament) are all currently out of contention for this game.
There is only really one injury concern for the Hamburg manager Tim Walter ahead of this clash, with András Németh (Broken ankle) missing out, which gives Walter a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
