Bundesliga Free Betting Tips (5th matchday)
The Bundesliga is back
If you had the right nose for Bundesliga betting last weekend, then the fan of the well-kept sports betting has cleared up a lot. With Freiburg against Bremen, Gladbach against Wolfsburg, Cologne against Frankfurt and Schalke against Union Berlin, four games ended with the result of 1-1 draws. No more than three goals were scored in eight out of nine encounters. Is that an indication of a lack of strength? Or are the defences just so good this season?
Given the tight program that the German teams in particular, who are represented internationally, are more likely to consider the former. Teams like Bayern, Leipzig, Dortmund or Gladbach will only play English weeks until Christmas and will therefore save a little with their forces. On the other hand, the trend that Corona brought about that hardly any home teams win continues. Not a single team in the Bundesliga managed to win in their own stadium on the fourth matchday.
In tabular terms, not much has happened after four laps. Leipzig is at the top with 10 points, closely followed by FC Bayern Munich and BVB. At the very bottom, Schalke gave the red lantern to FSV Mainz. The Rheinhessen have still not scored. 1. FC Köln currently has a relegation place.
It remains to be seen whether the above trends will continue on the coming Bundesliga weekend, which this time will run from Friday to Monday. What one can definitely say is that the upcoming matches in terms of sports betting leave nothing to be desired.
On Friday evening, the previous surprise team VfB Stuttgart welcomes Cologne’s previously desolate team. For the Swabians, it is already on the fifth day of the game a huge chance to put a direct competitor in their place in the relegation battle. In the event of a possible victory, VfB would already have nine points ahead of the billy goats.
On the following Saturday, the 97th Revierderby is on the program in the top game of the fifth round. For the Royal Blues, this game can be both a blessing and a curse. In the event of a possible victory, they could reconcile with the already infinitely eaten up fans and draw new strength for the upcoming tasks. In the event of a defeat, the misery would continue under the new coach Baum.
And next Sunday, the revitalized SV Werder Bremen welcomes table neighbour TSG Hoffenheim. It remains to be seen whether the Hanseatic League can hold an upward trend against the Sinsheimers.
VfB Stuttgart vs 1. FC Cologne Free Betting Tips
Date: Friday 23 October
Even the most die-hard VfB Stuttgart fan should rub their eyes several times when looking at the table. It is clear that the euphoria for promotion can still be clearly felt among the Swabians. However, seven points after four rounds are a clear announcement to the competition in the relegation battle. A small downer is perhaps the fact that the Swabians took six of the seven points away from home and have not yet been able to win at their own stadium. That will also be the straw that 1. FC Köln will cling to. The billy goats urgently need points. After the first four days of play, you have only one point in the relegation place.
If you believe Cologne’s away record against VfB Stuttgart, it is absolutely not unreasonable that the billy goats will kidnap points from beautiful Swabia on Friday. The Cologne team have won six of the last eight guest appearances, once they parted in a draw, only the last guest appearance was lost by “Effzeh”.

Borussia Dortmund vs FC Schalke 04 Free Betting Tips
Date: Saturday 24 October
If you look at the table, there can actually only be one winner in the 97th Revierderby on Saturday in the top game of the fifth round and that is Borussia Dortmund. However, a Ruhrpott derby is known to have its own laws. This clearly shows the record of the last duels between BVB and arch-rivals Schalke 04. The black and yellow could only win one of the last four Bundesliga home games against the Royal Blues. Unfortunately, from the perspective of the miners, one wonders how they are supposed to survive in Signal Iduna Park on Saturday evening. After four rounds, the Knappen only scored two goals of their own and had to fish 16 balls out of their own net on the other side. BVB, on the other hand, is considered to be one of the most offensively strong teams in the league. Alone an Erling Haaland could eat the entire Schalke team on their own.
The only thing that speaks in favour of the Royal Blues in advance is that they can go to the Revier derby completely rested, while BVB has to go to Lazio Rome during the week in the Champions League. The Dortmund squad is so well positioned in terms of breadth that even this straw is not worth clinging to.
Betting Tips: AH-1 win Borussia Dortmund
Odds: 1.88
SV Werder Bremen vs TSG 1899 Hoffenheim Free Betting Tips
Date: Sunday 25 October
SV Werder Bremen only narrowly escaped relegation in the past season. In the four games so far in the new season, they are actually doing quite well. You have already collected seven points and are in seventh place in the table. Next Sunday, TSG Hoffenheim will be something like the feared opponent in the Weserstadion. Only one of the last nine Bundesliga home games could win the Hanseatic League against the Sinsheimers. Five of the last nine games ended with a 1-1 draw. The Hoffenheim have not scored after the surprise victory on the second matchday against FC Bayern Munich. SV Werder Bremen should be just right for them.
The duel between Bremen and Hoffenheim will definitely not be the treat of the round. Rather something for fans of sports betting who are familiar with tactical foxes, such as Kohfeldt and Hoeneß is. In the end, as so often, both teams will part with a draw.
Betting Tips: Draw
Odds: 3.75
