High expectations

Dieter Hecking's team registered a huge 0-2 win vs Schalke in Gelsenkirchen and that was expected based on their great performance. That win gave them the chance to reach the top four of the table and have 7 points less than first-placed Dortmund. Now they can dream of something that seemed unreachable in the start of the season. However, if they want to achieve this goal, they must take advantage of their home where they've already registered only wins and 25-3 goals in 9 games overall.

The two home games vs Schalke and Wolfsburg was a chance for Hertha to get a better place on the table, as these two teams are on the same level as them. They could have won, however their performances were disappointing and so they only draw with Schalke. Their defense is weak and it's difficult for them to get a positive result in away games.

Borussia are one of the few teams who registered only wins in home in top European tournaments. It's worth trusting them once again.
