Hertha Berlin Preview – Can Hertha Berlin take derby spoils?
It’ll be an empty and eerie Olympiastadion Berlin without any fans present, but Hertha Berlin will nevertheless be keen to keep their promising run of form going on Friday night when they entertain local rivals, Union Berlin, with the hosts looking to extend their unbeaten run to four matches in the Bundesliga.
Hertha Berlin blew away Hoffenheim in a resounding 3-0 win on the road in last weekend’s long-awaited resumption of the Bundesliga, and having lost just 1 of their last 5 matches overall, Friday’s hosts will be in confident mood.
However, the majority of Hertha’s success this season has been away from home where they’ve won 5 of their 8 wins so far this season, and they’ve managed just 1 win out of their last 10 matches on home turf.
The goals market appeals though as 10 of Hertha Berlin’s 13 home matches have resulted in over 2.5 goals.
Union Berlin Preview – Can Union Berlin get one over their rivals?
Despite losing back-to-back matches in the Bundesliga either side of the Coronavirus break in play, Union Berlin won’t need much motivation for this upcoming clash against crosstown rivals, Hertha Berlin, as they look to climb above their hosts on the German top flight ladder.
Defeats to Freiburg 3-1 away from home and last weekend’s 2-0 loss at home to league leaders, Bayern Munich mean that the visitors are now one league place below their rivals and having registered just 1 win out of their last 5 matches overall, this could be a tough evening for Union Berlin.
In addition, Union Berlin have lost 5 of their last 8 away matches so the straight win here looks beyond them but goals have been flowing regardless, with 8 of Union Berlin’s 13 away matches seeing over 2.5 goals.
