Kaiserslautern, Recent FormKaiserslautern will not be too disheartened with their 2-0 away defeat at the hands of St. Pauli who sit 14 places above them in the table. In that game they had 42% possession and managed 11 attempts on goal, with 4 on target, compared to St. Pauli who had 20 attempts and 9 on target.
Whilst they have scored a reasonable 4 goals in their last 6 games, they are struggling to pick up points due to their defence, who have shipped 15 goals in the same period. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 23 games.
Serious concerns will be mounting for Die roten Teufel, having gone without a win in their last 9 league games and lost the last 7 in a row.
Schalke 04, Recent FormSchalke 04 won't feel too deflated by the 2-0 home defeat to Hamburg, given that their opponents sit a full 11 places above them in the league table. Their share of possession in that meeting was 55%, while racking up 26 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target. Hamburg had 8 shots on goal with 5 on target.
While they have been strong in attack with 12 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 11 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They're experiencing a relativley poor spell of form on the road, having lost 4 of their last 6 away games despite notching up a couple of wins.
