Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The statistics suggest we don't have an obvious winner in this fixture, but there's plenty of reasons to believe that Schalke and Rostock will score 2 or more goals between them. That has been the case when they've gone head-to-head in years gone by, and neither Karel Geraerts or Mersad Selimbegovic has suffered the frustration of many 0-0s of late either. The bookmakers are predicting over 1.5 goals too, with odds of 1.18 equating to roughly a 75% probability.

If you’re looking for a winner in this match, we think Schalke are the most likely. Our predictive algorithm gives them a 59% chance of victory, and the bookies have them at a best price of 1.80.
