Hertha Berlin - Union Berlin Prediction, Picks and Tips

On Friday evening, a derby is scheduled in the Bundesliga. FC Union Berlin is a smaller club than city rivals Hertha, but is currently higher in the rankings. Will Union achieve a good result in the Olympiastadion?

Hertha BSC had a tough one last week, with the away match against the well-performing and easily scoring Bayer Leverkusen. However, that Alte Dame did not allow himself to be defeated in the BayArena. A concentrated and defensive strong playing Hertha took a point (0-0). In the rankings, the Berliners did not make much progress with this. They remained thirteenth, with eight points from nine games. "I look forward to every Bundesliga match, but a derby is of course something special," said trainer Bruno Labbadia at the press conference on Wednesday. Labbadia tried to keep the mood positive, despite the somewhat disappointing results so far. "We are all on the right track," said the coach, who has plenty of options for Friday's game. The expensive purchase Lucas Tousart seems to have to settle for a seat on the couch.

FC Union Berlin is one of the positive surprises of this Bundesliga season so far. The second club in Berlin managed to maintain itself well last year, in its first season at the highest level. Those expecting a difficult second year have been disappointed for now. Those Claimants take a lot of points. After nine rounds, the counter for Union is already at sixteen, which means they are currently in a good sixth place. Last week, the Berliners delivered a spectacular match. In the home game against Eintracht Frankfurt, a quick 2-0 lead was taken, and there were more chances. However, the visitors came back strongly. Max Kruse eventually prevented a loss of points with a nice goal (3-3). "He sees things that other players don't see," said Sheraldo Becker admiringly of Kruse earlier. Becker himself is also playing a strong season. Normally, the winger is in the starting eleven of trainer Urs Fischer.
