The forever young Revierderby becomes injured Summit. When the arch-rival FC Schalke 04 and Borussia Dortmund on Saturday dueling for a total 167 times, more than a dozen professionals are expected to be missing. But the high rate of illness and the only moderate start to the season both teams does not detract from the attractiveness of the Bundesliga duration burner in the opinion of Schalke’s sporting director Horst Heldt: “As for atmosphere, reputation and media coverage, it is the biggest derby in Germany and is among the top However, three in Europe. “

From a real top game this time can not be any question. Finally, last year’s runner from Dortmund ranks after last two games without a win only in eighth place, Schalke lies with two points less even only on the 13th place. Therefore, both clubs are under tremendous pressure. For the losers the table top would initially be a distant prospect. Given this constellation expected of Dortmund, Mats Hummels a contested match: “The thing is tingling.”

is considered to be the main reason for the hitherto modest record this season that both here persistent Personalnot. “That’s why both engines are still a bit on stuttering,” commented Jens Keller. Nevertheless outweighs even when Schalke coach the anticipation: “The troops will release all forces and put away the problems No matter who is on the pitch Everyone is doing will be hot to play this Derby…”

After all is at BVB the long-lost world champion Hummels before returning to the starting lineup. This should help to stabilize the last tottering defensive. To the chagrin of coach Jürgen Klopp has become of the former jewel of a problem area. No Bundesliga game was his team so far without conceding a goal. “That’s the whole season so that the opponent little effort too much is enough,” complained Hummels.

Even when rivals from Gelsenkirchen is in Kevin -Prince Boateng a service provider available again. However, Keller left open whether the midfielder after expiry of lock from the beginning is back again. Schalke managed to last Tuesday at 3:. 0 in Bremen, the first win of the season – without Boateng

is not only for the professionals but also for the police the duel a special challenge. Before the classified risk game classics additional forces were also requested from other states. Incidents as eleven months at Schalke ago when the game was belatedly kicked off because rampaging BVB fans, should not be repeated. For safety seats in the 800 sell out with 61,153 spectators, the stadium will remain free. Schalke manager Heldt recalled the peaceful Derby in late March in Dortmund: “This is the scale I hope that all are based on it..”

That can go there also harmonious with all rivalry, Atsuto Uchida and Shinji Kagawa live before. Almost every day the two meet for Japanese food sushi. But since the early years lasting friendship will rest for 90 minutes. Kagawa longs for a sense of achievement for Borussia. “If we win, we can soak up new self-confidence. We want with all their might. Because three points in the Derby would bring us new momentum,” the BVB returnees said in an interview with the German Football League.
