Schalke vs Dortmund

Paul Lambert has backed his former club Borussia Dortmund for the upcoming Bundesliga derby vs Schalke and also termed the Chelsea defeat as unlucky.

Schalke's last home Revierderby in February 2021, saw them crash to a 4-0 defeat, which is also their joint heaviest defeat at home to Dortmund in the Bundesliga. The upcoming game will be the 100th Bundesliga meeting between Dortmund and Schalke, with the former registering 37 wins. Meanwhile, Schalke are bottom of the standings with 19 points from 23 fixtures, and are fighting relegation. They are behind Bayern Munich, who are on top of the table with 50 points from 23 games. Aiming to bounce back to winning ways, Borussia Dortmund face Schalke in the Bundesliga's Revierderby on Saturday, at the Veltins Arena in Gelsenkirchen. The defeat also meant that Dortmund have now lost their last six away matches against English sides, in the Champions League, since defeating Arsenal 2-1 in October 2013.
