2nd Bundesliga today: Schalke – Hertha LIVE on TV, live ticker & live stream

FC Schalke 04 will face Hertha BSC in the Veltins Arena this evening. Historically, Schalke has a strong record against Berlin, with 43 wins since the Bundesliga was founded. Only against VfB Stuttgart did the Knappen celebrate more success. But Hertha has recently gained the upper hand and won five of the last six matches. Both teams were relegated together from the Bundesliga in May 2023, which makes this duel particularly explosive.

Hertha BSC has particularly impressed away from home this second division season. The Berliners got seven of their ten points away from home and remained unbeaten. They last achieved two away wins in a row a year ago, including a 2-1 win at Schalke. Michael Cuisance is Hertha’s top scorer with four direct goal involvements and has already equaled his performance from last year. The Berliners hope to continue their away series in the Veltins Arena.

Update (8:00 p.m.): The Hertha – Schalke lineups are here

FC Schalke 04 is struggling with defensive problems this season. With 17 goals conceded, they have the second best defense in the league. Especially at home, the Knappen conceded nine goals, which is a negative club record after three home games. For the first time since 1989, they are threatened with three second division home defeats in a row. Offensively, however, Schalke can rely on Moussa Sylla, who is one of the top goalscorers in the league with six goals.

Schalke have scored five goals from set pieces this season, which gives them some strength in dead ball situations. However, Hertha have conceded the most goals from set pieces, giving Schalke an opportunity to compensate for their defensive weakness. Although the Berliners have a low expected goals value of 8.2, they exceed this with eleven goals scored. Both teams will try to hide their weaknesses and play to their strengths to secure important points.
