Schalke’s home form has kept them out of trouble in the Bundesliga this campaign, as Die Konigsblauen have lost just one of their last eight home games. RB Leipzig will be looking to make it two in nine.

Match Preview

Away from home, it has been a different story for Markus Weinzierl’s men, who can’t seem to piece together a run of form. They’ve won one in their last eight on their travels.

    - Schalke 1-1 Dortmund
    - Werder Bremen 3-0 Schalke
    - Schalke 4-1 Wolfsburg
    - Darmstadt 2-1 Schalke

RB Leipzig have scored 11 goals in their last four league games, but many of their best performances come at home in the Bundesliga. Since mid-December, they have struggled away.

That being said, the division’s second -placed team have lost just one of their last four on their travels, beating the likes of Gladbach and Mainz and drawing with Augsburg.

    - RB Leipzig 4-0 Darmstadt
    - Mainz 2-3 RB Leipzig
    - Leipzig 1-0 Leverkusen
    - Leipzig 4-0 Freiburg

Schalke vs RB Leipzig Prediction and Betting Advice

RB Leipzig have managed to win their last four consecutive games, which has cut the gap between themselves and Bayern slightly due to Die Roten slipping up occasionally of late.

Schalke have been excellent at home, while RB Leipzig have struggled on their travels this year, which should point towards a tough contest for the visitors to navigate while taking all three points.
