Bayern Munich vs Schalke

Bayern lost against Wolfsburg with 1-4 in their first game for the new year. Really bad performance from the defence and 3 of the 4 goals for the opponent was on counter attacks. Important defensive players like Rafinha, Lahm, Martinez and Alcantara are still out with injuries, so may be their defensive problems will continue. On the other side Schalke have huge problems in attack, where Huntelaar is suspended, while Farfan, Draxler, Goretzka and Obasi are all injured. The blues won agains Hannover with 1-0 in their first game for 2015, but today will be a tougher game, because traditionally they are not good at Alianz Arena and lost their last 4 trips here with 1-4, 0-2, 0-4 and 1-5.
