Only a single game from the German Bundesliga on Friday, one against another will go out Schalke and St.Pauli.
The newcomers from Bundesliga2 St.Pauli, hasn’t had the greatest start in the league, currently taking the 13th spot with 13 points and an away record of W3 D0 L2.
Schalke 04, who where Bundesliga runner-up for last year is doing horribly so far. The team is taking the 19th spot with 6 points and a home record of W0 D2 L3.
Schalke 04 are undefeated in their last five competitive matches against St. Pauli, they have won 3 and tied the other 2.

Meanwhile St. Pauli has won only one game against Schalke (four defeats, three draws) – Pauli won a home game on April 26, 1996 by 2-0.
Here are few more interesting facts about both teams:
* Across this season and last, Schalke have won only one of their last eight home games (five losses)
* Pauli have won nine of their 13 points away from home. They also won five of their first six away matches in 2. Bundesliga last season, only having lost one
* St. Pauli have already won three away matches this season, equaling their previous record. A victory in this match would set a new record.
* Schalke are the least dangerous Bundesliga side in attack as they have only scored 10 goals. The only club with a chance conversion rate worse than Schalke’s (10.8%) is Bayern (9.9%)
Recommended Bet:
St. Pauli to win @ 5.00 (BET365.COM): Although I doubt Schalke be will a lot longer in this “hole” they are in, I believe that at this present moment they do not have what it takes to get their first home win. St. Pauli is a team that plays extremely well away, and will most likely depend on away games this season to stay in the German elite. As for the odds they are quite rewarding, for the amount of risk you will be taking.
