Schalke has controlled the series against Augsburg so far and the dominance could be what is needed for Schalke to right their season. Look for Schalke to continue to play great in this game and that stems from Schalke controlling the possession like they did in the last game, but also in the last game Schalke is able to win more corners and get more shots on goal with more landing on target and getting past the Augsburg keeper to help lock down the win.
