The Bundesliga’s bottom side Schalke will host the second-bottom side Hertha on Friday at Veltins-Arena from 18:30 GMT in a six-pointer clash to fight for survival.
Schalke have lost their last two matches in the Bundesliga in a blow to their fight for survival. With seven matches remaining in the season, they must win as many of them as possible, including Friday’s match, to enhance their survival odds.
Hertha are just a point better off than Schalke, they will need the three points to enhance their fight to remain in the Bundesliga next season. They are winless in the last five, losing three times and picking two draws.
Schalke have several injuries, including Polter (cruciate ligament), Heekeren (ligament), Ouwejan (adductor), Uronen (adductor), van den Berg (foot), Kozuki (ankle), and Henz (strain).
Hertha also have major injury issues involving three players; Kelian Nsona (knee), Chidera Ejuke (knee), and Jean-Paul Boetus (shoulder).
Schalke and Hertha both need points to aid their survival bid. They are at the basement of the Bundesliga, separated by a point.
Schalke, playing at home, will look to be proactive and attack the game. Hertha will be pragmatic and defend deep for most of the game.
A draw is the likely draw in this match, with shared points helping neither team to further their hopes of escaping the drop.
