We have reached the sixth round of fixtures in the 2022/23 German Bundesliga season and on the 10th of September we have a meeting between Hertha BSC and Bayer 04 Leverkusen.
The match will be played at the Olympiastadion Berlin and the hosts begin the weekend in 13th place on 4 points while the visitors are one place lower in the table on 3 points.
Hertha BSC come into the game having recorded their first win of the season last week. They beat Augsburg 2-0 away from home, with both goals coming in the second half.
Hertha BSC opened the scoring 12 minutes into the second half and added a second goal at the end of the game.
That win ended a run of 7 Bundesliga matches without a win for Hertha BSC, a run that extended back into last season.
This season, they started with a 3-1 loss at local rivals Union Berlin and then picked up their first point thanks to a 1-1 draw at home against Eintracht Frankfurt.
However, Hertha BSC have lost 2 of their last 3 Bundesliga fixtures, with the defeats coming at Borussia Monchengladbach and at home to Borussia Dortmund.
Trends show in their 13 most recent home matches in all competitions, Hertha BSC have achieved just 2 wins. They have kept 2 clean sheets in their last 12 home Bundesliga games.
Bayer 04 Leverkusen travel to the Olympiastadion Berlin having lost their first Champions League group game at Club Brugge.
The Belgian team took the lead in the first half but Bayer 04 Leverkusen thought they had struck back only to have the goal disallowed in what was a close VAR offside check.
It was a disappointing start to the Champions League for Bayer 04 Leverkusen and they have made a slow start to the season.
Bayer 04 Leverkusen have recorded 1 win from their 5 Bundesliga fixtures but have lost all 4 of the other games. The defeats have come at home against Augsburg, Hoffenheim, and Freiburg plus away to Borussia Dortmund.
Away form shows Bayer 04 Leverkusen have not been easy to beat and they are undefeated in 6 of their last 7 Bundesliga matches on the road. Trends show Bayer 04 Leverkusen have kept only 3 clean sheets in their last 15 away Bundesliga games.
Team news and Hertha BSC are without the injured trio of Omar Alderete, Dong-jun Lee, and Kelian Nsona. They also have doubts over the fitness of Stevan Jovetic and Linus Gechter.
Bayer 04 Leverkusen have four players unavailable for this game, with Karim Bellarabi, Andrey Lunev, Amine Adli, and Florian Wirtz all in the treatment room.
Bayer 04 Leverkusen may have a good recent away Bundesliga record but they have started the season poorly. Hertha BSC will be hoping to take advantage of their slow start and could claim their second successive victory of the season, with both teams scoring.
