With almost all the prominent leagues in the world been postponed due to coronavirus, Bundesliga Matchday 26 will keep our weekend lively. Red Bull Salzburg who thrashed Tottenham in the champions league will be hosting Freiburg while Dortmund will be playing Schalke O4. Bayern Munich had their Champions League game against Chelsea postponed due to the coronavirus, over here we will be giving analysis on the games and then make possible predictions.
Borussia Dortmund vs Schalke 04
The Bundesliga Matchday 26 Saturday game will start with Borussia Dortmund hosting Schalke 04, they will face each in the Signal-Iduna-Park in the Ruhr derby. Lucien Favre’s troops are eyeing their fifth consecutive win in the Bundesliga, after a lost in the Champions League against PSG. They will be playing without team captain Marco Reus who is still nursing injury, but Jordan Sancho and Haland are fit and will be leading the attack.
Schalke 04 on the other hand failed to win their previous seven league games and are surely low on confidence at the moment. We believe that there is a big value in betting on the home team as they rolled over Shalke O4 at the Signal-Iduna-Park the last time they met.
RB Leipzig vs Freiburg
RB Leipzig dropped two points in their last game against Wolfsburg in the German Bundesliga Matchday 25. They did well to thrash Jose Mourinho men in the UEFA Champions League and are now in the next stage of the league. They will be hosting Freiburg in the German Bundesliga Matchday 26 at their Red Bull Arena the same arena they beat Spurs in the Champions League. Young boss Julian Nagelsmann will be all out his team to face Freiburg and we are positive they will win.
The team’s top scorer is likely to return to the starting XI against Freiburg, meaning that home win should be considered. Even though France defender Upamecano misses the game through suspension, anything but a routine home triumph will be a major surprise. Christian Streich’s men did well to beat Union Berlin 3-1 in front of home fans at the weekend, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry in the Red Bull Arena clash against the title-chasing side.
Union Berlin vs Bayern Munchen
Bayern Munchen will be looking to build on a hard-fought 2-0 win over Augsburg in the Bavarian derby when they take on Union Berlin on Saturday. They will be traveling to the Stadion an der Alten with all their best squad with the Champions League been postponed they have no fear of resting players. Robert Lewandowski will be leading the attack for the away team in the Bundesliga Matchday 26 and we are positive they will win the day.
The capital club often struggle in matches against top-table sides, which is one vital reason away win should be considered. In the first half of the season Bayern Munchen defeated Union Berlin 2-1, and we are positive that they are going to beat the capital club in their first ever meeting at Stadion an der Alten.
Eintracht Frankfurt vs Borussia M’gladbach
Eintracht Frankfurt and Borussia M’gladbach face each other at Commerzbank-Arena in what is expected to be one of the most entertaining games of the weekend of the Bundesliga Matchday 26 . Die Adler aim to bounce back from a heavy 4-0 loss to Bayer Leverkusen, and seeing that they are tough to beat at home, we predict that Filip Kostic and Co. are going to grab something from the match.
Die Fohlen, on the other hand, suffered a 2-1 loss to Borussia Dortmund in their last league match. Considering that both teams are likely to go for a win in Sunday’s football game, we believe that punters can find value in backing both sides to score. In the first half of the season Borussia M’gladbach outplayed Eintracht Frankfurt 4-2, and you should bear in mind that both teams found the net in each of their previous three meetings in the German top flight.
