THE PREDICTION
Hertha fans are starting to get the distinct impression that their stunning win over Hoffenheim was a false dawn under Felix Magath, having lost twice since then including most recently against inter-city rivals Union. They still have hope, with just a point between them and safety and have no choice but to go for it against Augsburg, pushing bodies forward in an attempt to gain what would be a huge three points. However, this may well lead to the hosts gaining opportunities themselves, taking advantage of the space afforded to them by a backline already low on confidence and an entertaining affair is on the cards. Regardless of the outcome, over 2.5 goals scored has to be favoured.
