THE PREDICTION

First-place hosts second-place in the standout 2. Bundesliga fixture of the weekend as Schalke 04 take on Werder Bremen. The hosts enter the contest in much better form than their opponents having won each of their last five matches, scoring at least two goals in each of those games whilst Werder are coming off the back of three consecutive 1-1 draws in comparison. The visitors are unlikely to stem the constant flow of Schalke attacks led by strike duo Simon Terodde and Marius Bulter, plus when taking into account the absentees to the Werder backline, the smart play here is backing Schalke to outscore their opponents and accrue a vital win, cementing their place at the top of the division.
