- Competition: 2. Bundesliga
- Date: Friday, 1st November 2024
- Kickoff: 17:30 UK / 18:30 CET
- Venue: Donaustadion (Ulm)
Two years ago, Ulm were part of the fourth level of German football. They won promotions in two consecutive years, but the 2024/25 season for the team from Baden-Wurttemberg could be challenging as they collected only eight points from ten league matches. Ulm are without a win in the last three matches, so an upcoming tie against fellow struggling Schalke could be a good opportunity to pick some points. Last weekend, Ulm played 1-1 on the road against Darmstadt. The home side was better, but the guests defended well and secured a valuable point.
Schalke are undoubtedly a giant in German football, but after all the problems in previous years and enormous debt, the club from Gelsenkirchen is facing another challenge: possible relegation to 3. Liga. Like Ulm, Schalke collected only eight points so far. Kees Van Wonderen's team is on a run of three defeats in a row, including a 3-0 loss on the road in the cup against Augsburg on Tuesday.
Ulm vs Schalke pick: Both teams to score - yes
Ulm scored at least one goal in four of the last six matches. On the other hand, Schalke scored at least one goal in ten of 12 games in all competitions this season. We should expect an intense clash on Friday evening, with both teams scoring.
