Hertha Berlin Preview
Hertha Berlin currently occupies the 17th place in the Bundesliga standings. So far this season, Sandro Schwarz’s team registers 3 wins, 5 draws and 9 defeats.
In the last five matchdays, Hertha only registers one victory, so they will surely come into this match looking to score at any cost and try to escape the relegation zone.
In their last home game against Wolfsburg, they were thrashed 5-0 and thus affirmed that they are not a team to be trusted. It is expected that Wilfried Kanga’s accuracy and Oliver Christensen’s assurance will be enough to seal the victory in front of his home crowd.
Possible lineup (4-2-3-1): Oliver Christensen; Jonjoe Kenny, Agustin Rogel, Marc-Oliver Kempf, Maximilian Mittelstädt; Lucas Tousart, Ivan Šunjić; Dodi Lukebakio, Suat Serdar, Marco Richter; Wilfried Kanga.
Union Berlin Preview
In their most recent league match against Werder Bremen, Union Berlin claimed an important 2-1 victory. Possession, shots and control of the match went entirely to the capital. In a hard fought match, Janik Haberer and Kevin Behrens scored in the 18th and 46th minutes to turn things around, as the home side started the match with the lead.
The team led by Swiss coach Urs Fischer is in second place in the Bundesliga with 33 points from 10 wins, 3 draws and 4 defeats. For this new Hertha Berlin vs Union Berlin clash, Union Berlin is expected to win to get closer to the first place in the competition.
Possible lineup (3-5-2): Frederik Rønnow; Danilho Doekhi, Robin Knoche, Diogo Leite; Josip Juranović, Genki Haraguchi, Rani Khedira, Janik Haberer, Niko Gießelmann; Sheraldo Becker, Kevin Behrens.
JefeBet Prediction
Taking into account their last results, we believe that it will be the away team who will win this match.
Union Berlin has got off to a great start in this 2023, with confidence and precision it has emerged victorious in the last two games and at the rate they are going, they are likely to match Bayern on points. In addition, they will face a Hertha team that is in dire straits.
Prediction: Union Berlin win 1-0.
