Hertha Berlin vs Bayern Munich
Germany – 1. Bundesliga
Date: Friday, 5 February 2021
Kick-off at 19:30 UK/ 20:30 CET
Venue: Olympia Stadion (Berlin).
Bayern Munchen will be aiming to retain top position in the Bundesliga standings when they take on Hertha Berlin in the German capital on Friday evening.
The reigning champions recorded a routine 4-1 win over Hoffenheim at the weekend, with Robert Lewandowski scoring his 24th goal of the season.
The Poland international will surely pose a big threat for Hertha Berlin defenders, and even though both Goretzka and Martinez have been tested positive for coronavirus, away win should be considered.
The likes of Tolisso, Tillman, Nubel, and Kouassi are all sidelined with injuries. The capital club, on the other hand, aim to put an end to their three-game losing run.
Hertha have been totally out of form in 2021, and we do not believe that they are capable of matching the title holders. Both Boyata and Dilrosun are likely to miss the game with injuries.
