Schalke 04 will be looking to build on their impressive 3-1 victory over Union Berlin when they take one Elversberg at Veltins-Arena. Die Knappen are eyeing their second win of the season after holding Bayern Munich to a goalless draw in their last home outing. Dejan Ljubicic is doubtful after picking up a knock, with Junior Dina Ebimbe ready to step in. Schalke have won 60% of their last 10 matches, scoring 2.20 goals per game, which suits our betting angle.
Elversberg, meanwhile, gave a strong account of themselves in a 2-1 defeat to Bayern Munich and are unlikely to abandon their attacking approach. Francis Onyeka is doubtful through injury, while Maurice Krattenmacher is pushing for a rare start after scoring as a substitute against Bayern. The newcomers have won 60% of their last 10 games and average 2.80 goals per match, but their away BTTS rate is a remarkable 100%. Five of the six previous H2H meetings have also seen both teams score.
Schalke have momentum after beating Union Berlin 3-1 and should have enough quality to edge an entertaining contest. Therefore, our main prediction leans toward Home Win, alongside BTTS and Over 2.5 goals (Elversberg’s matches average 4.50 goals, while 67% of the six previous meetings produced at least three goals.)
This Bundesliga match will be played on Sunday 20 September 2026 at 16:30.
