Jupp Heynckes "confident" against Schalke

Bayern Munich coach Jupp Heynckes is confident that his side can defeat Schalke away at the Veltins-Arena in the Bundesliga on Saturday.

The Bavarians have made a 100% start to the 2012-13 season, winning all three league games, and defeated Valencia 2-1 in the Champions League on Wednesday.

"We're nicely in the groove, as they say," said Heynckes. "I'm confident we'll keep up the good work on Saturday.

"We were authoritative and imposed ourselves on the game against Valencia. We want to do it again on Saturday."

Schalke are currently two points behind Bayern in fourth place in the league table, with seven points from three matches.
