Arminia Bielefeld vs Hertha Berlin Prediction & Betting tips
Perhaps Bruno Labbadia will be the decisive person when Berlin Hertha competes on the Bielefelder Alm on Sunday. The guest coach has ended his long Bundesliga career at Arminia and still has a close family relationship with East Westphalia. Even if the Hertha coach wants Arminia to stay in the league, only one victory for his team on Sunday counts for him.
It’s been a long time since these two clubs met in the Bundesliga. In the 2008/09 season both played together in the German upper house. After that there were a few more matches in the second division and in the DFB Cup. With the well-known bookmakers, Hertha is seen as an easy favorite in this duel.
In the Bundesliga table, the Berliners hope to work their way up in the next few weeks. Twelfth place is not a satisfactory snapshot for the Big City Club. In the capital you would have liked to see yourself a lot further ahead. After all, the quotes indicate that the prognosis between Bielefeld and Hertha is towards an away win.
It is no surprise that Arminia is in a relegation battle. Uwe Neuhaus’ team is currently on the relegation site. The teams to be overtaken are still within reach. The East Westphalia have to be careful not to let themselves be left behind at the beginning of the new year. In general, however, a tip on the guests in the game between Bielefeld and Hertha seems to be the better choice.
Bielefeld :
Arminia Bielefeld spent many years in the Bundesliga. However, East Westphalia has never had such a bad start to the season. There have never been ten defeats on 14 match days. Uwe Neuhaus’ team can currently only consider themselves lucky that two clubs, Mainz and Schalke, are much deeper in the misery.
Overall, Bielefeld has lost ten of the last twelve Bundesliga games. However, there is also an encouragement, because the Arminia can almost never be shot. Only against Union Berlin and Bayern there was clear clap. Therefore, in the match between Bielefeld and Hertha, we tend to keep our hands off the odds on a handicap win for Berliners.
Last weekend, however, Bielefeld delivered a very weak game. At home they only lost 1-0 to Borussia Mönchengladbach, but that was more because the foals didn’t take advantage of their numerous chances. In the aftermath, Uwe Neuhaus spoke of an absolute chaos in his team, which must not be repeated against the capitals.
There are currently only a few Arminia players on the Bundesliga injury list. With Noel Niemann and Andreas Voglsammer only two players are missing. That means that Uwe Neuhaus has a lot of options for his starting XI. It is certain that the former Berlin Arne Maier will play from the start.
Hertha :
Money doesn’t always score goals. The Berliners have invested a lot in the squad in the last few months, but Hertha is still well below expectations. After all, you currently have four points more than last season at this point in time. Nevertheless, the Big City Club still has some catching up to do in terms of points over the next few weeks.
Especially in a foreign country, things don’t really run smoothly. Hertha got just two points from the last three away games. In addition, there was the most recent defeat in Freiburg with a 1: 4 defeat away from home in 2020. That doesn’t necessarily sound like a prediction of an away win in the match between Bielefeld and Hertha.
The Berlin team got off to a good start into the new year last weekend when they won 3-0 at home against Schalke 04. However, that against troubled miners was no more than a mandatory victory, which was still hanging by a thread, especially in the first half. Matteo Guendouzi, Jhon Cordoba and Krzysztof Piatek were the goalscorers for Hertha.
On the alpine pasture, Bruno Labbadia will do without Dedrick Boyata, Javairo Dilrosun and Mathew Leckie. Otherwise all actors are fit again. At Santiago Ascacibar, however, it will be a race against time. Jordan Torunarigha is threatened with another place on the bench after Omar Alderete made a decent performance against Schalke last weekend.
