Bayern vs Hertha: Preview, free tip and statistics

27.08.2021 11:00

The reigning champions of the top German competition will challenge Hertha Berlin at home on Saturday night at the Alianz Arena.

Background information, news and team form

Bayern have entered the new season at a slower pace. After a poor preparation, Bayern only managed a 1-1 draw at Monchengladbach in the first round, with Plea scoring for the home side and Polish mega-superstar Lewandowski scoring for the visitors. In the German Super Cup, Bayern, however, managed a smooth 3-1 win over rivals Dortmund and in the next round of the Bundesliga, they beat Cologne 3-2 after goals from Lewandowski and Gnabry. In their last DFB Pokal match, die Rotten even managed to set the second highest win total in the club's history after being drawn against provincial club Bremer in the first round, which the visitors demolished 0:12. 

Hertha, after investing heavily in recent years, had hoped for a better start in the new Bundesliga. However, after two rounds played, they have a fat zero on their account. They lost 3-1 to Cologne in their opening game and failed to take the points at home against Wolfsburg despite going ahead in the 60th minute after a Lukebakio goal. Hertha finished a disgraceful 14th in the table last season and will be looking to do better this season, preferably on the rungs of the European competition.
