And Schalke has successfully to strengthen their defense and improved their performance recently even Dortmund and Union Berlin were unable to gets full points from them and indeed based on head to head statistics i can see Leverkusen is the favourite but i don't think Schalke will be easily to beat so i am curious whether Leverkusen will be able to overcomes Schalke or not
Although bookies sees Leverkusen as the favourite of the both teams but from their recent performances Schalke has done so much to improve their defense, if they could play a 2:2 draw game with Dortmund and goalless draw with Berlin they can get a draw from Leverkusen as well.
There is no doubt that Leverkusen is a strong team. However, it is not possible to guarantee that Leverkusen will win against Schalke. Because the Schalke team is very tactical now. Their performance has also improved considerably. This team is unbeaten in the last 8 matches. They have also managed to pick up points against big teams like Gladbach, Union Berlin, Dortmund and Augsburg. And so Leverkusen is in good form now but is likely to drop points against Schalke. I guess the match could be a draw. Schalke's attack is not strong. But their defence is very strong now. And so the match is likely to be a 1-1 or goalless draw.
