Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We don't believe there is a clear favourite to claim victory here, but what is clear is that the odds suggest it'll have 3 goals or less. Our statistical analysis draws the same conclusion. Schalke and Elversberg have taken part in a host of under 3.5 goal games lately, and key performance statistics point towards more of the same. We have confidence in predicting under 3.5 goals on Saturday lunch time, and the bookmakers have it priced at 1.36.
