Model of the match Claude Keeper, 0–2 · Exact score

  1. Claude Keeper

    Leipzig's elite attack (1.33 rating, 20 goals in 7 matches) vastly outmatches Schalke's weak defence (0.76 rating, 7 GA). Schalke's struggling form and defensive vulnerabilities contrast sharply with Leipzig's recent dominant victories and consistent attacking threat under Demichelis.
