Hertha BSC vs 1. FC Union Berlin Prediction 28 January 2023

In one of the most spectacular matches of the Bundesliga matchday 18, Hertha Berlin and Union will measure their strength.

With 14 points in the asset and 20-30 goal statistics, Hertha are only in seventeenth position and, like a year ago, they are in a tough fight for survival. In the previous five meetings, the Old Lady suffered four defeats from Bayern (2-3), Stuttgart (1-2), Bochum (1-3) and Wolfsburg (0-5), and also dealt with Cologne 2-0.

After an international break, Union Berlin beat Hoffenheim 3-1 and Werder Bremen 2-1 to return to second place with 33 points and a goal difference of 29-22. But in the middle of autumn, the Iron Ones experienced a serious decline, as can be seen from their duels with Bayer (0-5), Augsburg (2-2) and Freiburg (1-4).

At the moment, Union reign in the capital of Germany, and four successive triumphs in the derby are a vivid confirmation of this. We believe that next Saturday, the Iron Ones will be much closer to success.
