Dortmund to face Schalke 04

I would go with Dortmund in this clash. They are already in a good shape, winning the T-Mobile Cup this week.

Dortmund pk. Teams haven't change much from last year, when Dortmund gathered 35 points more than Schalke

the win of the T-Mobile Cup isn't a really good argument, because it has not a high validity

Schalke - Dortmund is a big derby and the game is @Schalke

imo this isn't a good match to bet

Yeah Schalke is at home, I don't think theres a good bet here.

Why was Schalke 04 at home in the Cup final?? Is this normal in Germany? I didn't hear the commentator mention it but I did watch it (175 countries watched it apparently!!)

I think this is the 3rd or 4th time in German Supercup where a team has home advantage. I researched a bit and it seems the place is usually neutral and already picked before either cup/league winners are known.

This would be similar to Bayern Munich reaching CL finals coming season and the finals will take part in Munich.

Fair enough. Makes sense. Home advantage just about paid off for Schalke on Saturday
