1. FC Nuremberg host Schalke 04 at Max-Morlock-Stadion, Nurnberg on Saturday, May 9 at 8:30 PM in the 2. Bundesliga.
1. FC Nuremberg come into this fixture in mixed form (2W 2D 1L). Schalke 04, meanwhile, arrive in good form (3W 2D 0L recently) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives 1. FC Nuremberg a slight edge, but Schalke 04 are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
