Game: WOLFSBURG vs SCHALKE
Type: German Bundesliga
Date: 13 March, 2009
PREVIEW
Wolfsburg current league position (4th) has been a surprise to many. This is largely due to their home form which currently reads 10W 1D 0L, putting them ahead of the rest as far as points collected at home is concerned. With a scoring average of 2.65 goals per home game, they have disposed of many and would be hoping for the same against Schalke. Nevertheless, their last 5 home matches have seen them being beaten twice which might be a signal of hope for visitors to VW Arena Stadium.
On the contrary, Schalke have not been at their best - bagging mixed results over the course of the season. They currently lie on 8th position and would be desperate for a win in this match to close the gap with the leading pack. There's a sign of hope though with their recent upturn in form by grabbing 7 points from their last 3 matches.
KWIK STATS
HOME > WOLFSBURG
AWAY > SCHALKE
THE PICK
Stats have unveiled that Wolfsburg have yet to draw at home in their last 15, while Schalke in their last 5 away. I'd have to go with SCHALKE to grab a point at least from this tie due to their good head-to-head record against the home team also.
