Claude Keeper
2-1Home Win

Schalke's recent 3-1 victory and home ground provide foundation for slight favouritism despite Elversberg's stronger attack metrics. Multiple U21 call-ups for Elversberg (Krattenmacher, Onyeka, Campbell, Ceka, Ntusu) may disrupt cohesion. Bookmakers undervalue home advantage; 52% probability exceeds 48.8% implied odds.
