Werder may have to wait for their first win

BT Sport 2, from 2.30pm Sunday

Schalke v Hamburg2.30pm
Hamburg had taken one point from eight Bundesliga games before beating Stuttgart last time out, although an early red card to Dzenis Burnic made that clash much easier and normal service should resume at Schalke.

The rejuvenated Royal Blues are on the match and should safely justify their odds-on status.

Recommendation
Schalke
2pts 6-10 BoyleSports, Coral, 188Bet

Key stat
Hamburg have not won any of their last six away matches at Schalke.

Werder Bremen v Hannover5pm
Florian Kohfeldt has been given until the winter break to prove he is good enough to be made Werder Bremen's permanent manager and there were encouraging signs despite the 2-1 defeat at Eintracht Frankfurt before the international break.

However, goal-shy Werder have not won in the Bundesliga this season and they look short enough against a competent Hannover team.

Recommendation
Draw
1pt 45-17 188Bet

Key stat
Werder Bremen have scored once in five home games this season.
