Match Preview
Dynamo Dresden will host Schalke 04 at the DDV-Stadion on Sunday, 31 August, in a crucial 2. Bundesliga clash. The home side has struggled recently, recording three consecutive losses before bouncing back with two wins. In contrast, Schalke has shown a more consistent form, winning four of their last five matches, which positions them as the stronger side heading into this fixture.
One key angle to consider is the contrasting home and away performances. Dresden's recent resurgence at home could provide them with the confidence needed to challenge Schalke, who have historically found it difficult to secure victories on the road. In their last ten encounters, Dresden has managed to win two at home against Schalke, indicating that they can compete effectively against their opponents. With both teams capable of scoring, this match could see opportunities for goals, particularly if Dresden can harness their home advantage effectively.
