Match Preview

Ahead of our Hoffenheim vs Schalke preview and free Bundesliga predictions, the visitors were recently in good form. Schalke started the season well, but saw that run come crashing down.

A trip from Bayern Munich was enough to resign Die Konigsblauen to a 3-0 defeat, which ended a run of back-to-back victories in the Bundesliga as a result.

Our Hoffenheim vs Schalke predictions suggest that the hosts should be considered strong favourites, which makes the week’s soccer odds very tempting indeed. Nagelsmann’s team are one of the more exciting packages in the division. Hoffenheim last lost at home in the German top flight all the way back in May 2016, and that run will continue for another week at least. Schalke will need picking up off the ground after midweek.

Hoffenheim vs Schalke Prediction and Betting Advice

In this same fixture last season, Hoffenheim battled their way to a 2-1 victory, with Kramaric and Rupp scoring to rule out an early strike from Choupo-Moting – who has since moved to Stoke City.

There will be no repeat of the season before that, where Die Konigsblauen smashed past Hoffenheim in the form of a 4-1 thrashing. The hosts have made huge progress since then.

Hoffenheim have kept four clean sheets in their last five Bundesliga home games, with Hertha Berlin the only team to find a way through. Schalke have their work cut out to do damage to the home unit.

William Hill’s offer of a simple home win looks like easy money, and that is reflected in the relatively short odds. Given Hoffenheim’s record in Sinsheim, however, it would be a banker that this one comes in. Schalke have a mammoth task on their hands.

Uth found the back of the net back when these teams met two seasons ago, and he is still knocking around at Hoffenheim. The German forward has started the campaign in dangerous fashion, netting four goals in five Bundesliga games.

Our predictions reflect that Uth is a danger man, especially given that he has got underway in terms of goalscoring in Europe too. Schalke will need to plan to try and keep him at bay, with 10Bet offering fantastic value on an anytime strike.
