Schalke 04 Werder Bremen betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This clash should not be one of the most balanced of this round of the German Championship, as it faces two teams that have been doing quite different campaigns so far. While Schalke 04 is in third place, Werder Bremen is one of the last placed with one point ahead of the relegation zone. The home team bets a lot on set pieces, and it has shown a lot of precision when finalizing, while its defense stands out in set pieces, but it has made some individual mistakes. Werder Bremen has difficulty keeping possession of the ball, and has been ineffective in completing, but its defense shows strength in tackles. Thus, by having a good attack and playing in its domains against a team that is not having a good time, it is a good option to bet on the victory of Schalke 04.

Preview
Schalke 04 and Werder Bremen face at Veltins‑Arena, in a match for the 21th round of the Bundesliga. In the last league head‑to‑head, played in 16‑09‑2017, Schalke 04 got an away win by (1‑2). At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history favours the home team, since they have a record of 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in the last 4 matches. Sure enough, the last time these teams met at this stadium, on 06‑11‑2016, in a match for the Bundesliga, Schalke 04 won by (3‑1). The goals of the match were scored by A. Schöpf (35' and 63' ) and N. Bentaleb (38' ), for Schalke 04, and by S. Gnabry (42' ), for Werder Bremen. Although this is a match between 2nd and 16th of the league table, it’s actually a match between the 4th best in home matches and the º best in away matches.

They haven’t lost any of the last 7 home matches for this competition. In their home league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 1‑0 (8 out of 10 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 10 of the last 10 matches for this competition have ended with Over 1,5 goals. They have conceded the first goal in 8 of their 20 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 1. there is 1 period that stands out in the last 10 home matches for this competition: they have suffered 4 of their 11 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Schalke 04 returns to play at home for the German Championship a little more relieved after having managed to rediscover the path of victory in the competition, thus stopping a fast that lasted three rounds. At the time, the team had a great defensive performance and also showed a lot of consistency in the midfield, building the victory in the first stage against Stuttgart. As has been shown once again, the team has been characterized by a very consistent defense, which is currently among the five least leaked of the competition. Playing in its dominions, the team lost eleven of the thirty points that played until then, and in that condition did not suffered goals in three occasions. Coach Tedesco has been testing various tactical formations throughout the championship, but there should be no major embezzlement for this duel.

Confirmed Lineup: Ralf Fährmann, Bastian Oczipka, Matija Nastasić, Naldo, Thilo Kehrer, Daniel Caligiuri, Nabil Bentaleb, Max Meyer, Amine Harit, Yevhen Konoplyanka, Franco di Santo.
Coach: K. Geraerts.

Analysis Bremen

The away team is currently in the 16th position of the league, with 17 points won, after 3 wins, 8 draws and 9 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Bayern München, by (4‑2). In the last match, they tied in a home match against Hertha BSC, by (0‑0). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, since they have won points in away matches and 10 points at their stadium, with 9 goals scored and 12 goals conceded at home, against 7 goals scored and 13 conceded in away matches. In the last 10 away league matches Werder Bremen has a record of 1 win, 4 draws and 5 losses, so they have won 7 points out of 30 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 1‑0 (4 out of 10 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In 20 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 10 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 10 away matches for this competition there are 2 periods that stand out: they have scored 3 of their 7 goals between minutes (16'‑30'); they have conceded 5 of their 13 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Werder Bremen is in a difficult situation in the Bundesliga, as it has not won for five rounds, a time when it added two defeats and failed to score goals in two matches. In the last round, the team had a good performance against Hertha Berlin, including showing a good offensive performance, but failed to overcome the opponent's defense, and ended up registering a goalless draw at home. This lack of goals in the attack is nothing new, since its offensive sector is one of the four worst of the competition. Another big problem of the team has been possession of the ball, in which case it has the fourth worst average, making it difficult to create a good volume of opportunities. The coach has often changed the team's tactical system, but will likely keep Moisander as a reference in the defense.

Confirmed Lineup: Jiří Pavlenka, Theodor Gebre Selassie, Ludwig Augustinsson, Miloš Veljković, Niklas Moisander, Maximilian Eggestein, Milot Rashica, Thomas Delaney, Jérôme Gondorf, Max Kruse, Ishak Belfodil.
Coach: O. Werner.
