With an orderly defensive department of the guests, the home side have had trouble getting between the lines. There is too little movement away from the ball; the opponent can anticipate the faceoff relatively easily.

VAR decision: The goal by M. Bülter (FC Schalke 04) is disallowed, score: 0:0
After a perfect acceptance by Bülters in the right angle, Schalke initially celebrates the supposed lead. However, referee Martin Petersen took the goal back at the VAR’s notice due to the goal scorer being offside.

The Royal Blues, who slipped to last place in the table after Bochum’s home win against leaders Union in the afternoon, find a decent start to the game. So far they have ensured a balanced balance of power.

Drexler are missing centimeter to a quick 0:1! Brunner’s ball win on the right flank against Ejuke is followed by a flat pass to the near side of the sixteen. Drexler kicks the ball to the flat right corner with the second touch with his right foot. He misses the post by a hair’s breadth.

In the Gelsenkirchen team, who last won away from BSC in October 2017 and who would move up to 15th place in the table with a triple point win, interim coach Matthias Kreutzer changed Frank Kramer’s last starting eleven five times. Instead of Latza, Flick, Mollet, Mohr and Larsson (all on the bench), Brunner, Krauss, Aydin, Drexler and Bülter start. Kolodziejczak (without a club, most recently AS Saint-Étienne), who was committed during the week, is part of the squad.

On the side of the capitals, who won the last two duels with the Royal Blues in the 20/21 season and are the only Bundesliga team without a home win (four draws, one defeat), coach Sandro Schwarz has compared to the 2:3 Away defeat at RB Leipzig made two personnel changes. Kanga and Ejuke edge Šunjić and Richter to the bench.
16:47
FC Schalke 04 is at the end of a turbulent week, as those responsible released head coach Frank Kramer from his duties the day after the 5-1 DFB Cup smack at TSG 1899 Hoffenheim. Desolate performances in the Bundesliga, which had recently led to four defeats, ultimately made this decision unavoidable. Before the new trainer is presented shortly, the Royal Blues want to stop the negative spiral under interim coach Matthias Kreutzer.

Hertha BSC may be stuck deep in the bottom of the table after ten Bundesliga match days and have been waiting for their second win of the season since the beginning of September, but an undoubtedly improving form curve in recent weeks has ensured a positive mood in the blue and white camp. As a result of a series of four draws last weekend, everything pointed to a swatter at RB Leipzig due to a break deficit of 0: 3, but thanks to a double strike around the hour mark, the old lady just barely missed a successful comeback.
16:31
Hello and welcome to the Bundesliga early Sunday evening! In the final game of the 11th match day, Hertha BSC will host FC Schalke 04. The players from the capital city and Gelsenkirchen will face each other from 5:30 p.m. on the lawn of the Olympic Stadium.
