On the upcoming Saturday, 1st April, the Ruhr Derby, which is one of the most important games of the season for the supporters, will be held in German Bundesliga, when Schalke will host Borussia Dortmund.
Despite the field factor, Schalke are far from being the favorites of the match and Borussia is considered to be the one in bookmakers. One can partially agree with such action line, but only partially, as Borussia have some noticeable problems in Bundesliga, especially in away games.
Schalke have turned their attention to the Europa League lately, as it is already clear, that it will be impossible for the Miners to get into UCL via the championship, but nevertheless, the upcoming match is special, as it is a derby, which cannot be lost, especially, when the match is domestic. Weinzierl can lose his post just for one defeat.
For Borussia, in their turn, the upcoming game also has a huge importance. Tuchel’s team doesn’t play that well in away games, has only four victories within thirteen away games this season within Bundesliga, however, the future guests know, how to set themselves for a specific match, despite the field factor. Within the last five matches, Borussia Dortmund had four victories, losing only one match against Hertha with a score of 1:2.
For Borussia this upcoming game is like a Champions League match, and such games are always played powerfully by Tuchel and his men. Schalke are a domestic team, but it is hard to compare them. Borussia have obvious advantage.
Prediction for the match: Borussia to win with 0.0 Asian handicap.
