Bundesliga Preview

The pressure in the Bundesliga in this final match of the season will be on Schalke, who must claim maximum points if they are to fight off relegation. They come into this testing final game of the season sitting 17th, and are the only team in the bottom two that could yet avoid relegation this term. Schalke comes into this match in interesting form, as they have registered two wins from their last four, and they have lost just once over that period. 

A draw may also be enough to give them a second chance of survival, as they have an advantage in terms of goal difference over Bochum, but that’s not the case when it comes to Stuttgart or Augsburg. Schalke come into this match after netting a late equaliser in their previous match against Eintracht Frankfurt.
