Schalke vs Hertha Berlin Prediction & Betting Tips (1 August)

The Schalke 04 will play its 3rd year of rank with the Bundesliga. 2. The return to the anteroom of German football is delicate for the moment. The Gelsenkirchen club after a 10th place in 2024, went close to the cata last year with this 14th place in 2025. Complicated moments that pushed certain executives to put their sails. Back to the wall, when is the German prep? No less than 5 games, very mixed results, like a 0-0 against the Pana on July 09, defeat at SV Wehen 2-3, success against St. Gallen 1-0, 0-0 Twente, to finish with a reverse in front of the Sevilla FC 2-4.

 The sauce is similar for the hertha Berlin. Relegated in the same cart as Schalke 04 in 2023, he has a lot of trouble approaching the Top 5. Ninth in 2024, and eleventh in 2025. In the same way as his opponent of the day, a favorite label for the climb will stick to him well on the back this year. Very singular preparation for the formation of the German capital which after 3 successes in front of amateur training fell in front of Brondby 0-1 on July 13, for a success against Austria Vienna 1-2 on 18, and zero against the Ecossais de Motherwell 1-1 on July 25. 

A small point on a well -stocked infirmary for the locals in which we should find the important central Tomas Kalas (32), midfielder Yannick Banchmann (29) and Bayindir (18) too fair physically. Zaid Tchibara (18) is affected, even leaves for Turkish captain and international Karaman. Among the main movement, note the departures of Derry Murkin (Utrecht) Meymet Aydin (E.braunschweig) and the arrivals of Timo Becker (central, free) already holder in preparation, and Nikola Katic (central) in the same register. Author of 16 goals last year, Moussa Sylla did not move.

In front, the Hertha Berlin deplores the plans of his 2nd and his 3rd goalkeeper, Gersbeck and Goller, the central defender holder Getcher (suspended for 2 days), John Brooks the American international also holder in the defensive register, Pascal Klemens holder in the midfield, Schalke 04, and little used Luca Schuler in front. Two colossal departures will do a lot of harm at Hertha, those of Maza (Leverkusen, 12,000,000th) and Scherhant (Friborg, 2,000,000). In return, the hertha gained a huge blow by obtaining for a year (ready), the young nugget M.Krattenmacher (Bayern Munich) announced as a future nugget.
