Schalke 04, Recent FormSchalke 04 will not be too disheartened with their 1-0 away defeat at the hands of Holstein Kiel who sit 12 places above them in the table. They achieved 40% possession in that match and had 7 strikes at goal, with 2 hitting the target, up against Holstein Kiel's tally of 22 efforts at goal, 5 of which were on target.
It seems pretty certain that Karel Geraerts will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 6 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 9 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but so far this season they have conceded at least 1 goal in 17 of their 21 games overall.
Their current form can't be viewed positively, having clocked up 3 losses from their last 6 games and only 2 wins to speak of.
Goalscorer Kenan Karaman will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Schalke 04.
Wehen Wiesbaden, Recent FormA point gained from their 1-1 draw against Nurnberg in their previous encounter will not be considered a bad outcome for Wehen Wiesbaden. In that game they had 49% possession and managed 7 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Nurnberg who had 16 attempts and 7 on target.
Markus Kauczinski will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 8 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 9 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have failed to record a clean sheet in their last 10 games.
They've had a less than ideal run of form recently, winning just 1 of their last 6 games.
Ivan Prtajin has scored 3 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against Schalke 04.
Last time they met both teams got on the scoresheet, but the match ended in a 1-1 draw.
With only Timo Baumgartl (COVID-19) and Dominick Drexler (Illness) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Karel Geraerts will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
Wehen manager Markus Kauczinski has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
