Schalke 04 continue in the Bundesliga against SC Paderborn. Due to the circumstances, a special challenge for royal blue.
In a way, they are unequal conditions. While Schalke 04 only made it into the DFB Cup quarter-finals during the week, which will be drawn on Sunday *, after extra time, SC Paderborn had a game-free week.
Still, David Wagner "has no worries. We walked over 120 minutes while the Paderborn guys were relaxing on the couch. It's a challenge that we are taking on," said the Schalke 04 coach before the duel with the Paderbornern on Saturday, of which wa.de * reports in the live ticker.
The challenge increases because Schalke currently has personnel problems - which is why Wagner has to fiddle with Paderborn with regard to his lineup.
