Team News

Schalke
Hannover
  • Karel Geraerts could make multiple changes here with Henning Matriciani, Derry John Murkin and Seb Polter all returning to the starting XI.
  • Forward Kenan Karaman should return to the bench after serving his suspension in the defeat to Karlsruher.
  • No changes are expected from Hannover manager Stefan Leitl this weekend following an impressive display against Magdeburg.
  • Havard Nielsen remains suspended for the trip to the VELTINS-Arena.

Prediction

  • Schalke were second-best from minute one against a struggling Karlsruher side last weekend, losing 3-0 at BBBank Wildpark in a worrying start to life under Karel Geraerts. Once Bundesliga giants, the home side have now lost four consecutive league games and sit 16th in the 2. Bundesliga table.
  • Hannover made a return to winning ways last Friday evening with Cedric Teuchert's second-half penalty proving enough to seal a 2-1 home win against Magdeburg on home soil. Stefan Leitl's side have climbed to fourth in the standings ahead of their trip to the VELTINS-Arena and have lost just once on the road this season.
