Schalke Double Chance
Tipped as certainties to go down earlier in the campaign, Schalke have been fighting tooth and nail to put points on the board in the Bundesliga of late, and their 2-2 derby draw with Dortmund last week pushed their unbeaten spell in the division to an impressive seven games. Augsburg have been posting some solid results at home in recent weeks, though they could come unstuck when they face Schalke’s new battling qualities. With those factors in mind, our opening Augsburg vs Schalke prediction advises a stake on the visitors in the double chance market.
Both Teams to Score
Augsburg have rattled the net at least once in eight of their last nine Bundesliga home fixtures and they should be able to manufacture and convert a chance against Schalke on Saturday. The visitors meanwhile, have upped their own output in the final third and having notched twice in each of their last three assignments in the league, Die Königsblauen will expect to register again. That opens up an avenue of approach for bettors in the both teams to score market this weekend.
