Sunday:
1. Bundesliga:
Gladbach- Schalke: Schalke pk @ 1.877
Schalke should got enough confidence back with last week's solid home win after 2 shaky outings. they have to follow München with a win today and i think they are well capable of that. many fans from schalke will travel to Gladbach today and Schalke got a great history of playing at Gladbach. Gladbach got a good start after the winter break, but came back to earth in a terrible performance last week. today will be a tough match for them as schalke will be very dangerous on the counter attack and i expect no more than a draw for them today..better team as pk is the play here.
Stuttgart- Berlin: Berlin +0.5 @ 1.885
Getting + goals for berlin is a gift right now. they are the best team after the the winter break inleague. marcelinho is back in the line up for today'S match and they are facing a struggeling stuttgart team. stuttgart could not win their last 2 home game and also did not perform well in wednesday's 0-0 draw against parma'S B-team.
2. Bundesliga:
Köln- Aachen: Köln -1,-0.5 @ 1.79 !! 2 units!!
Big match for both teams. first of all it's a highly anticipated derby. Aachen is chasing Köln for a promotion spot, but Köln could widen the gap to 12 points today with a win, which would pretty much ensure the promotion. Although Köln is coming of a 2-2 draw against lowly Karlsruhe they are playing solid football right now. in that game they came back twice on a snow covered pitch, which was actually a good result seeing the circumstances. I can tell you that other teams would have lost that game.
Aachen is struggeling after the winter break in league, winning only 1 of 4 games and coming of a home loss against lowly Unterhaching. To make it even worse: 2 key players are suspended for today and two more key-players, including team leader Mayer, got injured during uefa-cup match against Alkmaar on thursday.
This is another factor to calculate for today's match. Aachen just had a tough uefa-cup macth 3 days ago..so they are on short rest.
Everything is pointing to a home win here and i expect the line to close at Köln -1.
At -1 Köln is still a strong play, but only 1 unit.
Erfurt- Fürth: Fürth pk, -0.5 @ 2.11
3rd place against last team. Fürth also coming of a disappointing home draw. I expect the much better team to bounce back.
Aue- Unterhaching : Aue -0.5 @ 1.87
Solid home team, looking for a close win.
