Blog of Nations League tips

The sunken Schalke 04 missed one of his last chances to save himself from relegation. The team from Gelsenkirchen reached only a draw in their home game predicted by soccer predictions against Mainz 05, which is also in the danger zone. The match in Gelsenkirchen was Schalke`s debut for Dimitrios Gramocis. The Greek specialist could not count on a lot of injured players and bet on several young boys, including 18-year-old Kerim Chalhanoglu, who recorded his first match in the Bundesliga. After conceding a total of 9 goals in the previous two rounds, today Schalke at least showed relative stability in defense, but this was more due to the fact that Mainz also played too timidly and almost did not threaten the door of Frederik Ryonov. One of the few interesting moments before the break was the header of Shkodran Mustafi in the 18th minute, but Robin Centner was careful. In the 42nd minute, Adam Salai could have given the lead to Mainz, but from a convenient position sent the ball out. In the second half, the guests were not afraid to seek victory against their hesitant opponent. However, in the 82nd minute, Jonathan Bookhart fired an insidious shot, saved by Ryonov. Schalke`s players seemed to be happy with the draw and cleared the ball far ahead. The Royal Blues are last in the standings with only 10 points, and Mainz 05 has 18, as much as Hertha (Berlin) and Arminia (Bielefeld).
