2 - Trabzonspor - Schalke 04
Trabzobspor +0,25 @1,94 Pinnacle Stake: 5/10
Second and final friendly game of Trabzonspor in Antalya. Turkish Cup games will start next week and probably test of the new players will be there since they are playing with a very weak opponent from second division. Sources told that Senol Gunes will be with regular 11; Onur – Serkan, Giray, Glowacki, Cale – Yattara, Selçuk, Ceyhun, Engin – Burak, Umut against Schalke 04. I'm expecting the new Polish signings; Pavel Brozek and Piotr Brozek to be in the game in the second half. On the other hand Schalke 04 came to Belek 2 days ago and there are some problems with Rakitic and Farfan. Coach Magath is giving no tolerance to these players and suggesting that they can be sold if good offer will arrive to them. Moreover Right-back uchida is in Asian cup with Japan, Höwedes who injured in indoor tournament is out but he's with the team. Schalke is with 19 regular players and 2 young players from the youth team in antalya. Since it's 2 days that Schalke started its training, reports are telling that Magath is more focused on passing and strenght training rather than tactial deployment. So tonight i think Magath will try these young players in the game.
It's Trabzonspor's last game and Schalke's first friendly game, i think that Trabzonspor will be more motivated to the game. Small stakes.
