THE PREDICTION
Hertha extended their unbeaten run to eight games with a goalless draw at home to Koln last Saturday, which was enough to ensure their league status. That was their fifth draw in this run and only two sides in the Bundesliga have registered more draws this season, while Pal Dardai’s side have only won one of their last 12 league games away from home. Hoffenheim have also drawn a lot of games recently, including last time out against Arminia Bielefeld. Strangely, there has only been one home win in the last eight meetings between these two teams, with three of those ending all square, and with neither team having anything to play for, they would both settle for a point.
