On the upcoming Monday, the team from Regionalliga Dynamo from the capital city of Berlin will host Schalke from Gelsenkirchen at its home ground. Bookmakers are on Schalke’s side in the match, although it is important to note, that the Royal Blues haven’t had a single official match this season yet, while Dynamo already had two encounters.
Dynamo Berlin are only a small regional team, but one should not regard such sides with prejudice. Within the first two official matches in the current season, the team from the capital of Germany managed to defeat Luckenwalde team away and also had a draw within their native walls with Wacker from the town of Nordhausen. In Regionalliga’s tournament table Dynamo Berlin are situated on the fifth position.
Schalke Gelsenkirchen are preparing for the season playing friendly matches. Within the last five games, the Royal Blues did not lose a single time: they had draws with Inter and Crystal Palace sides, defeated Besiktas, Neftci and Eibar. With this statistics, there is an impression, that Schalke are in a good sporting shape, but one should not forget, that the absence of gaming practice in official matches may have a negative impact on the results of the men from Gelsenkirchen in the forthcoming encounter.
Dynamo Berlin are considered clear outsiders amongst bookmakers and it is hard to disagree with that, but one should not underestimate Dynamo Berlin as well. The future hosts played well in the first two official matches and did not lose, while Schalke still haven’t had any official games.
Prediction for the match: Dynamo to win with +2.5 Asian handicap
