Schalke are unbeaten in their last five competitive games, but it has been at home where they have been particularly consistent. On the road, they have struggled against some tougher sides, such as Hoffenheim, with Freiburg set to be another difficult test.

Our Freiburg vs FC Schalke 04 predictions back the hosts to be tough to break down, which means that our Bundesliga tips believe that Schalke should be confident that they can take a share of the spoils home with them.

Freiburg’s general form has been very poor this season, but their home performances have shown they can dig in well. Given that they have started the campaign so badly, their performances on their own patch are growing increasingly key.

Freiburg vs FC Schalke 04 Prediction and Betting Advice

Freiburg come into this game with just one win in their last 12 Bundesliga outings. It has been only at home where they have looked quite comfortable, with five draws in their last six home matches in the German top flight suggesting that the same outcome should be probable this time around too.

Betfair offer the best value on these two teams to be unable to separate themselves by the time it gets to the final whistle. Freiburg last lost at Schwarzwald-Stadion back in April of this year, showing just what a fortress it has become. As their away performances have been disappointing this campaign, picking up points at home is an important counterbalance.

Schalke come into the weekend on a run of five consecutive games unbeaten in all competitions and should be riding high on confidence once again. They’ve beaten the likes of Hertha Berlin and Werder Bremen on their Bundesliga travels lately, and equally, Die Konigsblauen should be confident that they can take more spoils on the road this time out too.

Our Freiburg vs FC Schalke 04 bets suggest that both teams will be able to do some damage on Saturday afternoon, with the visitors finding the back of the net in three of their four competitive away matches this campaign. Only against Hoffenheim have they not scored on their travels.

The visitors managed two goals versus Werder, two goals against Hertha and also netted three times against Wehen Wiesbaden in the DFP Pokal recently. They have enough firepower to cause Freiburg a few problems. The hosts have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last three consecutive league home games.

Our Freiburg vs FC Schalke 04 betting tips suggest that the home team will be very tough to take three points from, with the likes of Hoffenheim and Borussia Dortmund already having dropped points when visiting Freiburg this campaign. Schalke will be confident they can put up a good contest, but ultimately these two would both be happy with a point.
