Schalke 04’s Heiko Westermann will face a plank of just 1 point to beat in this weekend’s game against Bochum in the Bundesliga, a perfect chance to attempt to grab the top spot in the FTBL ranking of German defenders.

Westermann trails the current leader, Bayern Munich’s Philipp Lahm, by 7.16 points. Lahm will face a plank of 11 points in a game on the road against No. 6 Werder Bremen.

To cover all the bases, Westermann needs a goalless win, which is quite possible; Schalke won their last 2 games against Bochum with a combined score of 6:0. In the last 10 games between the two teams, Schalke won 8 times, among them 5 times without conceding a goal.
