Schalke vs Bayer Leverkusen
Sunday 14th June 2020
Bundesliga, VELTINS-Arena
Live on BT Sport 1 HD – Kick Off: 17:00 BST
Schalke will host top four hopefuls Bayer Leverkusen in Bundesliga action this Sunday afternoon.
The hosts have been in horrendous form ever since the Bundesliga’s restart from the coronavirus pandemic with four losses and one draw. Meanwhile, Bayer Leverkusen have impressed but are lacking some consistency as they put the chase on Borussia Monchengladbach and RB Leipzig for a top four finish.
Schalke are heavy underdogs for this match despite having home advantage and are priced at 5/1 to win the match by SkyBet. David Wagner’s side must become more clinical in attack, after they have scored just three goals in their five matches since their return. Their home form is also poor, with four losses from their last five. With Leverkusen’s fast-paced, creative attack, Schalke will be in for a tough afternoon.
In attack, Benito Raman has been one of the only bright stars in the Schalke set-up and is priced at 10/3 to score anytime.
Bayer Leverkusen are favourites for this match up and are priced at 8/15 to claim an away victory. The visitors will fancy their chances against Schake after their 3-0 victory over Saarbrucken in the DFB-Pokal semi-final. Their away form is excellent, with five straight victories on the road against more in-form opposition than their Sunday opponents.
Going forward, Chelsea target Kai Havertz has been in inspired form this season with 11 goals and five assists. He is priced at 23/20 to score anytime.
Last time these two met, 40 booking points were brandished as Leverkusen came out 2-1 victors at the BayArena. SkyBet are offering 5/4 for 50+ booking points.
The match will be televised on BT Sport 1 HD and kicks off at 17:00.
