Hamburg will take a one-goal lead into the second leg of the Bundesliga relegation playoffs when they host Hertha Berlin on Monday.Tim Walter’s side were perhaps lucky to score the only goal of the game as a Ludovit Reis’ cross turned into an unsavable shot in the first leg.Overall, though, Hamburg perhaps deserved the win as they had the better stats in the game. They created more openings, had more shots, and completed more passes than Hertha.HSV English@HSV_English🎙 | Tim #Walter: "It's insanely fun to see how the boys have developed over the season and can hold their own in games like this."#nurderHSV #BSCHSV40🎙 | 2⃣ Tim #Walter: "It's insanely fun to see how the boys have developed over the season and can hold their own in games like this."#nurderHSV #BSCHSVHertha Berlin’s poor run of form continued with the loss, and heading into the second leg, they are perhaps underdogs as Hamburg have now won five in a row.Hamburg vs Hertha Berlin Head-to-headHertha Berlin have won this fixture just three more times than Hamburg.
