THE PREDICTION
Koln travel to Hertha full of confidence after entering the winter break having recorded successive Bundesliga victories. However, they’ll need to put in a special performance to overcome Tayfun Korkut’s side at Olympiastadion Berlin. Hertha’s last five Bundesliga fixtures at home have seen them draw twice and win three times, also scoring in all five of those games. When also factoring in that Koln have found the net at least once in six of their most recent seven Bundesliga matches, the attacking capabilities of the two teams should ensure an exciting battle with chances carved out at both ends of the pitch. As the home side, Hertha will be expected to take the fight to their opponents, but Koln will prove a big threat on the counter attack in particular and backing both teams to score has to be favoured.
