Hertha host Union on Saturday.

Hertha Berlin vs Union Berlin Prediction and Betting Tips | January 28, 2023 

Hertha Berlin will host Union Berlin at the Olympiastadion on Saturday (January 28) in the Bundesliga.

The hosts have endured a rather poor campaign, finding themselves in the drop zone with half the season gone. Hertha lost 5-0 at home against Wolfsburg in their last league outing and were perhaps fortunate not to have lost by a larger margin. Hertha have picked up just 14 points from 17 games this season and are 17th in the standings.

Union, meanwhile, have returned to competitive action on a positive note, shaking off their poor run of results just before the winter break. They beat Werder Bremen 2-1 in their last game, with Janik Haberer and Kevin Behrens getting on the scoresheet in either half to help overturn an early deficit.

The visitors are second in the league table, with 33 points from 17 games.
