Schalke face Borussia Dortmund at Veltins-Arena on Saturday, April 1. Here’s all the info you need to watch.
Borussia Dortmund enter matchday 26 in third place, just three points back of second place RB Leipzig. Schalke have had a disappointing season. The Royal Blues are ninth in the table and three points back of a potential spot in Europe next season.
Thomas Tuchel’s Dortmund squad have played well over their past five games. Dortmund have won four of their past five Bundesliga games. BVB have rediscovered their offensive firepower. In the past five games, Dortmund scored 14 goals and allowed just four.
Markus Weinzierl’s side has had a disappointing season. However, there are reasons to be optimistic if you’re a Schalke fan. The Royal Blues have several young players who will likely feature on future Germany squads. Johannes Geis, Max Meyer and Leon Goretzka are all players that fans should be excited to watch. After selling Leroy Sane the previous summer, Schalke could receive another big money offer for another one of their young players.
Schalke are one of the better defensive teams in the Bundesliga. The Royal Blues have only conceded 27 goals in 25 games this season. However, captain Benedikt Howedes and keeper Ralf Fahrmann will be tested the entire 90 minutes. Howedes will be responsible for marking the Bundesliga’s leading scorer Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
