Terodde will take it!

It may be a defeat for Schalke, but at least Terodde gets his goal, getting his toe end to Churlinov's low drive for something of a consolation on a personal and team level.

No hat-trick

Ducksch's day is over: two goals, two shots against the post and, probably, three points earned.

Bremen actually below par

Bremen regularly have more shots than their opponents - in fact, no team has had more shots in Bundesliga 2 this season - but today, they have focused on efficiency: more goals from fewer shots.

Schalke 04

Schalke's last 4-0 home defeat came against local rivals Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga in February 2021.

At least one goal deserved

information
xGoals
The xGoals value of a club is calculated from the sum of all goal probabilities (goals and shots on goal) of that team. During a match, it’s easy to see whether the club is performing better than expected (goals> xGoals) - or maybe even higher (xGoals> goals).
The xG model suggests Schalke are pretty hard done by with the scoreline as it is - they deserve at least one goal.

Such support

Schalke's fans are waving their flags and showing total support, despite the scoreline. Fantastic scenes, but can they still inspire a recovery?

Hat-trick on?

Marvin will surely be looking for it - it would be his 20th goal of the season, if he can get a third.

There where it matters

Bremen have been channelling their inner Usain Bolts to burst away from their markers when it matters, and establish a comfortable cushion.

Double Ducksch

This. Is. Incredible! Ducksch benefits from another deflection, and certainly he has put Bremen out of sight now.

Ducksch drills in!

Could that be the decider? Ducksch drills in a shot, with the aid of a deflection, after Füllkrug cuts the ball back. The Schalke defence is all at sea, and Bremen are sailing away with this.

Ducksch against the post again!

Ducksch hits the woodwork for the second time, this time curling a free-kick round the wall and striking the base of the right-hand upright.

Back underway

Can Schalke turn this around? They've brought on Churlinov for Drexler, who has perhaps made way due to the yellow card he picked up in that first half, and Schalke certainly do not want to have to fight back with ten men.

Ruthless guests

Schalke have had marginally more of the ball, covered more ground and played more passes, but not only do Bremen lead, they deserve to be in front with a fine display of clinical creation and finishing in this first half.

Ducksch close to third!

That could have been a third for Bremen with Ducksch clean through, but a last-gasp lunge gets a deflection in to prevent him from putting Bremen out of sight.

Flag up again!

Zalazar whips the ball in and Pavlenka just manages to paw it away. Before a Schalke player can pick up the rebound, the offside flag is up.

Drexler offside!

Schalke have the ball in the back of the net, but the offside flag is raised and it does not count - VAR confirms that the on-field decision was correct.

Killer corners!

That's another goal from a corner for Bremen! Like with their first, too much space is afforded to Weiser on the edge of the area and he swings the ball into the box for Füllkrug, who needs no invitation to put it away!

Like father, like son

Gruev's father, also called Ilia, netted 11 goals in Bundesliga 2 for MSV Duisburg, and now his son's got in on the act.

Terodde...offside

The first big chance of the game for Terodde, who has just Pavlenka to beat but pokes the ball straight at the Bremen custodian. The flag goes up so it would not have counted anyway.

Bremen leading here, and they are leading Bundesliga 2 as a result. Lots of time still to go, though...

Gruev in the right place!

Bremen take the lead from the first corner of the game, with the ball falling to Weiser, whose shot is only parried by Fraisl to Gruev, who accepts the gift from close range to nod Bremen in front!

Good response

Schalke have responded well from that close call and have had a few shots on Pavlenka's goal, albeit without causing the Bremen goalkeeper any problems.

Füllkrug chance!

Füllkrug nearly gives Bremen a flying start, latching onto a long ball from deep and lobbing it past the Schalke keeper before being closed down by a defender and missing the target, although the offside flag goes up anyway.

Off we go!

Schalke are shooting to the right in this first half, away from their most passionate supporters, whom they will look to bring plenty of joy to in the second half.

Full house!

The teams emerge to a full house here, over 62,000 fans in the Veltins Arena, including almost 7,000 from Bremen. What. An. Atmosphere!

Words from Büskens

"Ducksch and Füllkrug are combining well together and they complement each other well. They don't need many touches to get into a shooting position and have proven their worth. But we're not going to start calculating [what we need to go up], we'll just focus on ourselves and, in the end, see where we end up."

Two for me, two for you

Bremen also make two changes compared to the draw with Nuremberg last weekend, with Ilia Gruev and Mitchell Weiser coming in for Christian Groß and Milos Veljkovic, who are both out injured.

Two changes for Schalke

Compared to their 5-2 win over Darmstadt last weekend, Andreas Vindheim and Victor Palsson come into the starting XI for Henning Matriciani and Danny Latza, It's Vindheim's first start since Matchday 20.

Pavlenka - Friedl, Gruev, Jung - Weiser, Rapp, Agu - Schmid, Bittencourt - Füllkrug, Ducksch

Rich history

Claudio Pizarro, Raul and Julian Draxler are among the superstars who have scored incredible goals in games between Werder Bremen and Schalke over the years. Here are the Top 5!

Previous meeting: Bremen 1-1 Schalke

It was honours even when these teams met in November, Niclas Füllkrug's last-minute penalty cancelling out Simon Terodde's late opener.

Promotion six-pointer

Schalke are top of the table on 56 points, with Bremen - who were relegated alongside the Royal Blues last season - just two points back in second. Both are hoping for an immediate top-flight return, but Bremen could be leapfrogged by St. Pauli if they lose and the Hamburg outfit beat Darmstadt in Saturday's late kick-off.

More on Bremen's line-up

Bremen are without a pair of veteran centre-backs in captain Ömer Toprak and Milos Veljkovic. Anthony Jung drops back into the back three with Felix Agu taking his usual spot on the left flank.

More on Schalke's line-up

There are two changes from the Schalke side that thrashed Darmstadt 5-2 last Sunday. Iceland international Victor Palsson comes into midfield for Danny Latza, while Andreas Vindheim is preferred to Henning Matriciani at right-back.
