Schalke vs Werder Bremen Prediction and Betting Tips | April 29th 2023

Schalke will host Werder Bremen at the VELTINS-Arena on Saturday in another round of Bundesliga football.

The home side have struggled for form in the league of late and are running out of time to save their top-flight status. They were thrashed 4-0 by Freiburg last time out and were fortunate not to have lost by a significantly wider margin as they were repeatedly carved apart by their opponents.

Schalke sit 17th in the league table with just 24 points from 29 games. They are just two points above Hertha Berlin at the bottom of the pile and will be looking to widen that gap this weekend.

Bremen have also endured a difficult run of results in the league of late, although they remain on course to avoid the drop. They returned to winning ways last weekend with a 4-2 win over last-placed Hertha Berlin, sitting four goals up before their opponents scored two consolation goals.

The visitors sit 12th in the league table, with 35 points from 29 games. They will be looking to build on their latest result when they play on Saturday.
