Hertha Berlin vs Dortmund Prediction & Betting tips
At Hertha Berlin, the position of trainer Ante Covic was killed this week. Jürgen Klinsmann is in front of the group for the rest of the season. On Saturday the Berliners will compete against Borussia Dortmund.
Hertha BSC:
The club from Berlin was barely able to impress in the first twelve rounds of this season. The hope with the club leadership was that with the appointment of Ante Covic a fresh wind started blowing. For years, Hertha had played concrete football, with Pal Dardai as the trainer. However, that coach did get a lot more points than Covic did. After the 4-0 defeat against direct competitor at the bottom of FC Augsburg the curtain fell for Covic. His successor, until the end of this season, is old well-known Jürgen Klinsmann.
“We want to prove on Saturday that we can do better than we have recently shown,” right-wing player Marius Wolf said to Die Alte Dame’s own media. “Jürgen Klinsmann can help us with his experience.” Klinsmann cannot call on goalkeeper Rune Jarstein on Saturday, who received the red card last week. What the former Bundestrainer intends with the line-up is a matter of waiting.
Borussia Dortmund:
Just like with Hertha, it is also a crisis with Borussia Dortmund. The club from Westfalen has been performing very badly lately. In the Bundeliga, the team, in which there is no shortage of quality players, has the greatest difficulty in winning. Last Friday it just barely managed to get a draw in the home match against Paderborn (3-3). Due to the fact that the other top teams also spill many points, the situation in the ranking is not completely hopeless, but the gap with league-leader Borussia Mönchengladbach is already five points.
On Wednesday, things went wrong for Dortmund in a European context. In the Champions League, the tough game against FC Barcelona was on the program. The Spanish champion did not even have to reach his highest level to beat Dortmund (3-1). Only in the final phase, with a 3-0 deficit, did Der BVB get slightly better in the match. Trainer Lucien Favre needs a good result on Saturday. With a defeat in Berlin, the curtain for the Swiss coach might fall.
