Schalke 04 Bayer Leverkusen betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match will be the occurrence of several goals.

It should be noted that 67% of Leverkusen's away games ended with more than two goals at the end of the 90'. Thus, a very intense match is expected, with several opportunities close to both goals.

At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history favours the away team, since they have a record of 2 wins and 1 draw in the last 3 matches. Sure enough, the last time these teams met at this stadium, on 06‑12‑2020, in a match for the Bundesliga, Bayer 04 Leverkusen won by (0‑3). The goals of the match were scored by J. Baumgartlinger (67' ), M. Thiaw (10' Autogolo) and P. Schick (78' ) for Leverkusen.

Analysis Schalke 04

The home team is currently in the 17th position of the league, with 21 points won, after 4 wins, 9 draws and 12 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in a home match against Borussia Dortmund, by (2‑2). In the last match, they tied in an away match against FC Augsburg, by (1‑1). For the league, Schalke 04 won 9 points out of 30 possible points, after 2 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses in the last 10 home matches. They haven't been able to score the first goal. In fact, they have only opened up the score in 5 of the last 25 matches for the Bundesliga, they have reached half‑time in advantage in all of those 5 matches and have held on to the lead in 4. They have conceded the first goal in 15 of their 25 matches for this competition, and have never been able to turn the score around.

Schalke 04 comes for this round after a 1-1 draw on the trip to Augsburg: the only goal of the team was signed by Marius Bülter. The home team usually plays in a 4-3-3, using three players in front: Marius Bülter, Kenan Karaman and Michael Frey. It will not be surprising that Schalke 04 adopts a slightly more defensive posture, since they have a squad of inferior quality. Coach Thomas Reis cannot count on Dominick Drexler, Tim Skarke, Jere Uronen, Justin Heekeren, Soichiro Kozuki, Thomas Ouwejan, Sepp van den Berg, Marcin Kaminski, Tom Krauß and Sebastian Polter, all with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Ralf Fährmann, Henning Matriciani, Maya Yoshida, Cedric Brunner, Leo Greiml, Alex Král, Rodrigo Zalazar Martínez, Tom Krauss, Dominick Drexler, Marius Bülter, Michael Frey.
Coach: C. Gross.

Analysis Leverkusen

The away team is currently in the 8th position of the league, with 37 points won, after 11 wins, 4 draws and 10 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in an away match against Werder Bremen, by (2‑3). In the last match, they won in a home match against FC Bayern München, by (2‑1). In the last 10 away league matches Leverkusen has a record of 4 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses, so they have won 14 points out of 30 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 1‑0 (5 out of 12 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 25 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 13 times and have only turned the score around in 3.

Bayer 04 Leverkusen comes for this match very motivated after a 2-1 triumph against Bayern Munich: the team's two goals were scored by Exequiel Palacios. The visiting team plays in a 3-4-3, with the aim of adopting a faster style of play and constant transitions. In this tactical formation, the three players responsible for launching panic in the opposing area are Moussa Diaby, Amine Adli and Adam Hlozek. Coach Xabi Alonso should not be able to count on Karim Bellarabi, Patrik Schick, Charles Aránguiz and Andrey Lunev as they are, at this stage, recovering from injury.

Confirmed Lineup: Lukáš Hrádecký, Jonathan Tah, Edmond Tapsoba, Piero Hincapié Reyna, Odilon Kossounou, Jeremie Frimpong, Amine Adli, Robert Andrich, F. Wirtz, Exequiel Palacios, Moussa Diaby.
Coach: G. Seoane.
