Hour "Sh"

Sergey NIKOLAEV

MATCH TOUR

Schalke 04 - Stuttgart. The braked leader against one of the closest pursuers. Both clubs on “Sh” ceased to please fans. “Schalke” did not win in the last four rounds, “Stuttgart” - in three. The teams seemed frightened of their own agility. Gelsenkirchentsev also pretty crippled by a series of injuries and disqualifications. But the "blue" infirmary is gradually emptying. Varela, Pander and Asamoa on Saturday will get a chance to enter the field after a long break. But the coach of “Stuttgart” Armin Fe medical reports are not encouraging. The best team sniper Mario Gomez, in addition to a knee injury, showed a broken arm. Two can replace a forward who has retired for a month and a half: Mario Streller and Benjamin Laut. In the first round, the Stuttgart defeated the "blue", but did it at home. The statistics of the meetings in Gelsenkirchen speak in favor of Schalke. In the last eight seasons, he won seven times with one draw.

UNEXPECTED INTrigue

Werder Bremen - Mainz-05. The meeting of these teams in Mainz ended in disaster for the hosts. But now, Juergen Klopp's wards are far from being whipping boys. Their wonderful transformation is eloquently illustrated by the numbers: in the second round, the recent outsider scored 19 points out of 24 possible. For comparison: “Bremen”, claiming the throne, put only 11 points in the piggy bank during this period. So another question is, who should be considered the favorite of the Sunday duel. By the way, the rise of “Mainz” in many ways predetermined the arrival of two players who turned out to be superfluous in Bremen. Mohamed Zidane and Leon Andreasen at the Weserstadion will have something to prove. True, the entry into the field of the Egyptian who caught the flu is in question. But the “Bremen”, who became the quarter-finalist of the UEFA Cup, will not play the best scorer. Miroslav Klose still has not recovered from back pain.

DO NOT LOSE FROM THE VIEW

When Lucas Podolsky moved from Cologne to Bavaria, much was expected of him. But for a long time, the forward Bundestim could not open in a new place. Felix Magat did not fully trust the 21-year-old player, releasing him, as a rule, as a replacement. As a result, for more than half a season, Poldi scored only once. And only with the advent of Ottmar Hitzfeld did Lucas come to life. The new coach made an attack on his liaison with Roy Mackay in the attack. And this move is justifying itself so far. In the last three matches, Lucas does not leave the field without a goal.

IMPORTANT WORDS

“Having arrived at Hamburg, I started by establishing strict discipline. Before the players could sleep at the hotel until 11 in the morning, but I put an end to this. Now the team gathers in the lobby at half past eight. After a series of successes, the club quickly became euphoric. only one point separates us from the relegation zone, but everyone thinks that we are already saved. These thoughts may not bring to good, because the team is quite susceptible to this kind of mood, "- Hamburg head coach Hub Stevens .

INTERESTING FIGURES

Headed the Dortmund Borussia, Thomas Doll has become the club’s 3rd coach this season. In the first round, the yellow-blacks did not play very well under the leadership of Bert van Marwijk. The Dutchman was replaced by Jürgen Reber, but his rule only exacerbated the crisis. The task of Dol, who recently trained Hamburg, is to bring Borussia out of the danger zone.
