Bayer Leverkusen vs Schalke Prediction & Betting tips
Schalke played completely safe last week. On the penultimate match day the club from Gelsenkirchen plays the away match at Bayer Leverkusen.
Bayer Leverkusen:
Bayer Leverkusen has the top form, just in time. Peter Bosz’s team had a hard time in the Bundesliga, but in the last few weeks Leverkusen is playing strong. The maximum loot of twelve points was achieved from the last four duels. Last week, Leverkusen did little to Eintracht Frankfurt. As a whirlwind, Bayer scored one goal after another. At half time it was already 6-1. After the interruption it did not stop there (6-1).
Because of the victory, Die Werkself is once again promising for a place in the top four. People stand at 54 points – as much as Frankfurt. Despite last week’s 6-1, Eintracht still has a better goal difference than Leverkusen. The program of the Bosz team does offer opportunities. So they play against Hertha BSC next week. Just like Schalke, that team has also been seen as competitive this season. A ticket for the billiard ball is therefore a realistic option for Leverkusen.
Schalke 04:
Huub Stevens has passed his assignment. After the resignation of Domenico Tedesco, the Limburg veteran was given the task of keeping Schalke in the Bundesliga. The lead on number sixteen VfB Stuttgart was four points when Stevens took office. Schalke has been able to expand that margin slightly. Last Sunday, Die Königsblauen knew that a draw in the home match against FC Augsburg was enough for enforcement.
That draw would also come, in a qualitative match that was soon to be forgotten. Still there was a lot of relief, after the 0-0 final score. After the second place of last season, relegation would of course have been a huge disgrace. Now Schalke 04 can look ahead. This summer it is obvious that some will be changed in the selection. There is now also a trainer for the coming season. David Wagner, fired at Huddersfield Town in January, will be in front of the group in Gelsenkirchen next year.
