Schalke 04 vs Bayern Munich Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 5th September 2026

As the early season favourites, Schalke 04 will look to justify their title credentials on Saturday when they take on Bayern Munich for a round 2 match in the Bundesliga.

Schalke 04 will be hopeful of getting on the board after an unlucky opening game to the new Bundesliga campaign which left them empty-handed.

Schalke 04 came away from their premiere match of the season with nothing to show for it and hope to make amends in the upcoming match.

While the hosts will battle for their first points of the season on Saturday, Bayern Munich will aim to handle the upcoming game in a similar trend as their opening match of the season.

Schalke 04 only average a modest 1.4 goals per game in their last ten matches in this tournament, in which they scored 14 goals. They also conceded 29 for an average of 2.9 per game. They kept their opponents from scoring zero times.

Bayern Munich show off whopping stats from their previous ten matches. They average 3.5 goals per game, scoring 35 times, while conceding 13. That makes an average of 1.3 per game, as they pulled off a clean sheet in three of the matches.

Schalke 04 face off against Bayern Munich for the first time in a while, with Bayern Munich claiming a 6-0 win at Allianz Arena back then.

Schalke 04 vs Bayern Munich Prediction

Schalke 04 Form

In their last three matches, Schalke 04 beat Eintracht Braunschweig 1-0, drew 2-2 with Hallescher FC, before losing 3-0 against Augsburg. Schalke 04 won three of their previous six matches at VELTINS-Arena in the Bundesliga. They drew two and suffered one defeats, scoring 13 goals to 11 against.

Bayern Munich Form

Bayern Munich are in awesome shape going into this next encounter, as they won their last three matches on the bounce. Borussia Dortmund got left behind in a 1-2 win, before VfB Stuttgart got hammered in a 5-1 victory. Osnabrueck was the most recent victim in a 1-4 win for Bayern Munich. Bayern Munich have been outstanding on their travels lately, winning five of their previous six away matches in the Bundesliga. They remained undefeated as they also drew once, while scoring 17 and conceding eight goals.

We don't expect Schalke 04 to pull off a surprise, and with goals flowing freely, they could be in for a hammering against strong looking Bayern Munich.
