Bundesliga Matchday 3 Betting Tips – VfL Wolfsburg
Wolfsburg is yet to notch its first victory of the season and currently lies in 14th spot of the Bundesliga table with 1 point to its name.
The club made a host of signings but Wolfsburg is still plagued by the same problems it suffered last season. The new boss Niko Kovac named an almost unchanged line-up for the first couple of fixtures. Koen Casteels is the goalkeeper with Sebastiaan Bornauw and Maxence Lacroix comprising the centre-back partnership. Micky van de Ven has been handed the left-back position with Ridle Baku in his usual spot at right-back.
After spending the previous season on loan, Joshua Guilavogui seems to have established himself as the first-choice for the anchorman role while Maximilian Arnold and Mattias Svanberg will be the slightly advanced central-midfielders on either side. Omar Marmosuh has started the two matches on the left-wing with Patrick Wimmer on the opposite-side and Lukas Nmecha as the solitary striker.

Bundesliga Matchday 3 Betting Tips – FC Schalke 04
Having taken only 1 point from its opening 2 fixtures, Schalke 04 is currently in 13th spot of the Bundesliga table.
Along with a new manager in Frank Kramer, Schalke 04 almost has a brand-new squad with a large number of signings and it will take some time to figure out if this gamble will pay off. Alexander Schwölow displaced Ralf Fährmann as the no.1 between the posts while Maya Yoshida and Malick Thiaw started the previous game as the centre-back duo with Cédric Brunner and Thomas Ouwejan in the fullback positions.
Alex Kral and Tom Krauß have been used as the holding-midfield partnership in both matches. Rodrigo Salazar was shifted on to a wider role on the right-side of the midfield and Tobias Mohr has operated on the left-wing. Striker Simon Terrode was brought in place of the attacking-midfielder Sebastian Polter for the last game to form a centre-forward combination along with Marius Bülter.
