Game of the Week For Bundesliga Return

The Bundesliga returns with a bang this weekend in the form of the Revierderby, the heated rivalry match between Schalke 04 and Borussia Dortmund. Dortmund and Gelsenkirchen (Schalke’s home city) are separated by a mere 25 miles in the soccer-rich Ruhr Valley. Dortmund slightly lead the all time head-to-head standings, with 33 wins to Schalke’s 32 in Bundesliga encounters. The two clubs have tied each other 30 times.

Last year delivered an absolute classic as Borussia, needing points to move into first place ahead of Bayern with 3 matches remaining in the season, capitulated ingloriously at home. Schalke did the unthinkable and ended up 4-2 winners in their mortal enemy’s own living room. This was undoubtedly the highlight of the Royal Blues’ season as they finished an uncharacteristically woeful 14th in the league. Dortmund fans felt the pain twofold- for the loss of the match, but also their chance at the title- and felt aggrieved at two suspect red cards.

This season, Borussia are yet again on Bayern’s heels, sitting in 2nd place with 51 points. Schalke are in 6th place on 37 points, just slightly in the running for a European qualification spot. Accuscore’s simulations have predicted both teams to have some issues to finish off the rest of the season after the long hiatus, but this derby is likely to be a blast nevertheless.

Our Dortmund Schalke prediction hinges on a few big personalities, and Dortmund’s wonderkids Erling Haaland and Jadon Sancho are the ones we are focusing on most. Two of the world’s brightest young talents, this duo will be expected to have a big impact if Borussia are to resume league play in good form. However, Dortmund will feel the absence of captain Marco Reus and midfield lynchpin Axel Witsel. Both are doubtful due to injury, so veteran center back Mats Hummels must take the initiative to lead an insanely gifted but immature side.

Schalke manager David Wagner’s first season in charge has had its ups and downs. The Royal Blues are 13th in the league in goals scored, but a staunch defense has carried them to a respectable place in the table. New loan signing Jean Clair Todibo will be counted on to anchor the back line, but will it prove too much responsibility in his first ever Revierderby? Attacking midfielders Amine Harit and Suat Serdar lead the team in goals, with 7 a piece, but the lack of a reliable striker may prove costly for the team from Gelsenkirchen.

Saturday’s match up is sure to be a battle, with both pride and points on the line. It’s the ideal match to re-introduce Bundesliga play and an absolute must-see.

What is Accuscore?

Accuscore provides predictive analytics on sports, based on the company’s own algorithmic simulation engine which has been under constant development for almost two decades. Sports predictions are an outcome of simulations in which individual games are simulated for thousands of times in order to arrive to the most likely results. These results are then used to create analytical predictions, content and advice for bettors, pundits or any stakeholders in the industry or media field. For the individual US users, Accuscore’s predictions can be accessed through subscription to BetQL.

The Accuscore simulation engine uses the relevant historical data of the players, teams and leagues to predict the outcomes of the games before they have started. The simulation results are based on the individual player performances and weighted according to the teams’ form, opponent and other circumstances that have been proven relevant to the outcome of the match. We have managed to filter out the unnecessary data-points by determining which are important and which are not – this has taken several hundreds of thousands of simulations, cross-references and comparisons of simulation results to actual outcomes.

Accuscore aims to provide independent, unbiased and objective sports predictions for all the customers. We strive to be transparent and all our simulations results are available in the archives. Throughout the years Accuscore has worked with several betting companies, for example Pinnacle and Coolbet, media houses such as Telia and Sporing News, sports teams and leagues, and of course individuals through our subscription service.

Our capabilities include tailoring the sports predictions service to any B2B need with different licensing models, revenue sharing programs or affiliate markets. We can package content based on the simulations in several different ways, which can include automated widgets, unique articles, videos or pure numbers from a feed – whatever suits your needs!

How to use Accuscore sports predictions?

Accuscore’s simulations provide various advantages for both businesses and individuals. The simulations are based on a sovereign algorithmic system and all the simulations are always ran the exact same way. The only variables are the data inputs which the simulation engine then uses to create the sports predictions according to the algorithmic model. The model has a proven track record and for example the NFL picks have provided constant profit over the years.

The simulations provide probabilities for the outcomes of the games which include – depending of the sport – for example the most likely final result, the amount of goals or points and player performances. These sport predictions can be compared to odds in order to make a more educated betting decision or they can be used to support, oppose or adjust ones view on the betting market.

For businesses the sports predictions provide an opportunity to use original content in various forms which can be modified to suit any need, for example: providing more information to customers, attracting traffic or users, as unique content to publish or for other marketing purposes such as short videos for social media. We are happy to tailor our service for each B2B customer.
