Hertha to dent Werder Bremen’s survival hopes

Hertha BSC vs Werder Bremen - 07/03/2020

05/03/20 2102

On Saturday afternoon, Hertha Berlin host struggling Werder Bremen at the Olympiastadion, in a game that could be crucial to the visitor’s survival hopes in the Bundesliga.

Hertha Berlin have endured a difficult season in the German top-flight. The team from the German capital are ten points clear of Saturday’s opponents. The home side are just six points clear of the relegation play-off spot.

Alexander Nouri’s team have encountered a poor run of late, as they have recorded just one win in their last five Bundesliga outings. Last time out in the German top-flight Hertha drew 3-3 at Fortuna Dusseldorf. It was the fourth straight Bundesliga game of the home sides that produced over 2.5 goals. In fact, it was the sixth time in seven of Hertha’s league matches that produced over 2.5 goals.

Hertha’s recent home form has not helped their chances of moving up the table. In fact, the home side has won just one of their last nine league matches at the Olympiastadion, suffering six defeats in the process.

A lack of home goals has been a big contributing factor in their poor home form, as Hertha have scored just once in their last five Bundesliga matches.

Werder Bremen now look destined for relegation to the second tier of German football. Florian Kohfeldt’s team are four points adrift of 16th place Fortuna Dusseldorf, who occupy the relegation play-off spot. They are also eight points behind 15th place Mainz.

Things are not looking good for Werder after nine defeats in their last ten Bundesliga matches. A 2-0 home defeat by Dortmund last time out means they have suffered five straight league defeats.

The visitors have failed to score in six of their last eight league outings while conceding at least two goals in their five straight league losses.

Forebet predicts that Hertha Berlin will record a victory in a high-scoring encounter to add to Werder’s relegation fears.
