Dortmund head to this game placed second on the Bundesliga standings with 51 points while Schalke have 37 points, in sixth place. Ahead of their m,atch against PSG, in the Champions League, Dortmund had gone on a five game winning run and the 2-0 loss was also the first time they have failed to score in 12 matches. They are however still unbeaten in 19 home matches and have won each of their last five, three with clean sheets and have scored two or more goals in four of the five. In seven of their last eight home matches in the league, Dortmund have scored three or more goals. They however go to this game winless in two straight matches against Schalke; they drew 0-0 in the first leg meetings.
