Match preview

Hallescher FC host FC Schalke 04 in this DFB Pokal Round of 64 cup tie. Hallescher enter the fixture having secured one victory, three draws, and one defeat across their last five matches, most recently falling 1-2 away to Altglienicke following a 0-0 draw with Chemnitzer FC.

FC Schalke 04 travel after a mixed run of five fixtures that produced three wins and two defeats. Prior to consecutive 0-3 home losses against Atalanta and Real Madrid, Schalke demonstrated strong attacking form in victories over Hessen Kassel (5-0), Fagiano Okayama (3-1), and FC Kharkiv (2-0).

With cup knockout dynamics in play, Schalke carry superior firepower into the tie, though Hallescher's ability to remain competitive in tight contests makes a hedged away position the prudent assessment.

Key factors

  • FC Schalke 04 have recorded three wins from their last five matches, scoring 10 goals across those victories.
  • Hallescher FC have won just once in their last five fixtures (1-0 against BSG Chemie Leipzig), drawing three and losing one.
  • Hallescher FC have been involved in tightly contested matches, conceding two or fewer goals in each of their last five games.
  • Schalke's last four matches have all featured at least three total goals.
