Klaas-Jan Huntelaar is in confident mood going into Sunday\'s fixture at FC Augsburg. In this interview with schalke04.com the Schalke striker talks about the significance of the game, his relationship with Augsburg\'s Dutch players and the Bundesliga run-in. Klaas-Jan Huntelaar, on Matchday 32 you travel to FC Augsburg. Is it a key game for Schalke 04? It\'s an enormously important match for us and so we\'re really up for it. We\'re desperate to pick up a win again after two defeats in succession. How do you assess Augsburg? Klaas-Jan Huntelaar is urging caution ahead of the trip to Augsburg.|Copyright: firo sportphotoThey\'re a good footballing side who have improved over the course of the season and as such steadily added to their points total in the second half of the season. Their victory at Wolfsburg last weekend is warning enough for us. Nevertheless I think we have more quality than Augsburg and will win the game if we play to our potential. Augsburg have a Dutch coach in Jos Luhukay and they also have several Dutch players. Have you come across any of them in your career so far? I know Paul Verhaegh from my very early days. We played together at youth level for PSV Eindhoven. He\'s a very good player. I faced Gibril Sankoh once or twice while I was at Ajax but I don\'t really know Lorenzo Davids that well. How do you see the run-in going from a Royal Blue point of view? I think we\'re still in a very good position even though Borussia Mönchengladbach have closed the gap on us. We have it in our own hands to defend third place and seal an automatic Champions League spot. If we win our last three games, no one can take that away from us.
