On Saturday, starting at 14:30 pm, the Leipzig – Schalke match will be played in the 6th round of the Bundesliga, the 2019/2020 edition. Leipzig has a positive record with Schalke, recording 3 wins, 2 draws and one defeat. Last season, “Taurii” won 1-0 at Gelsenkirchen, then drew 0-0 on their own ground. It announces a more attractive duel than the last ones, because both the hosts and the guests impress offensively.
Leipzig got the best start of the season in the Bundesliga, in its history, obtaining 13 points after the first 5 rounds. Julian Nagelsmann’s students drew with Bayern, and now ranks first in the standings, with 2 points over the Bavarians. Leipzig has become much more offensive this season, but he has kept his defensive safety, which he has impressed in recent seasons. Schalke is doing well, 10 points in the hierarchy of the Bundesliga and 3 consecutive victories under the leadership of David Wagner, the craftsman of the English group Huddersfield. The “miners” scored 10 goals in the first 5 rounds, the fifth attack in the championship, but now they will “hit” the best defense, Leipzig (3 goals conceded). Nagelsmann’s group is favored to victory and is probably an attractive match, with goals scored.
