Mainz – Hertha Berlin : Preview & Prediction
Eighth in the Bundesliga, Mainz host Hertha Berlin, fourteenth just two points behind the first relegation. FSV are ahead of last year’s standings, especially defensively as Bo Svensson’s men are in the league’s best defense position with the Munich leader. However, they are struggling to make ends meet this season due to poor results on the outside: two hits for five losses! But at home, the situation is reversed as Karim Onisiwo’s teammates have lost just one of their eight games at the Opel Arena. Suffice it to say that they will attack this match with full confidence to try to reach the European places.
Wouldn’t the wind start to blow on the Hertha Berlin side? With only one loss in the last four games, the Tayfun Korkut-led group seems to be raising its head and slowly forgetting its nightmarish start to the season. With a win last weekend against Bielefeld, Lucas Tousart and his teammates prepared well for his move to Mainz. To move away from the red zone, Hertha BSC will have to take points away from home and a win on Tuesday would be a benchmark match for the rest of the championship.
