Duel of the climbers – via the weak Schalke goes to Bremen
Situation: Both teams started the season as promoted teams. While the Hanseatic League is in eighth place after convincing performances, the Royal Blues have already changed coaches and are bottom of the table.
Statistics: The green-and-whites could theoretically also be one point behind Schalke in the standings with five points if they hadn’t scored more goals after the 82nd minute of play – with goals in the final minutes they scored another 13 points. Schalke have been waiting for a Bundesliga win in 34 away games over the seasons.
Staff: Captain Friedl may be re-involved with Bremen after his red ban was reduced by one match by the DFB. Schalke will be without several defenders, including left-back Ouwejan.
special: It is the fifth duel between the two clubs since September 2020. And Schalke are playing for the fifth time with a different manager.
