Hertha BSC vs Eintracht Frankfurt

Hertha BSC and Eintracht Frankfurt are set to trade tackles at the Olympiastadion in a battle between the two out-of-form Bundesliga sides.

After avoiding relegation to Bundesliga 2. by the skin of their teeth last season, courtesy of a hard-fought playoff victory over Hamburger SV, Hertha BSC have continued to underperform this season. New manager Sandro Schwarz is still waiting for his first competitive triumph at the helm, as a 3-1 loss at Union Berlin on Matchday 1 followed up a heartbreaking penalty shoot-out reverse to Eintracht Braunschweig in the opening DFB-Pokal round. Despite their abysmal start to the season, ‘Die Alte Dame’ will feel confident about troubling the scoreboard having netted in nine consecutive Bundesliga matches for the first time since 2018/19. Connoisseurs of action-packed football must be looking forward to this encounter, with each of Hertha’s last six Bundesliga meetings with Frankfurt seeing over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring.

Meanwhile, with star winger Filip Kostic gone and Real Madrid downing them 2-0 in midweek UEFA Super Cup action, Eintracht Frankfurt’s bid to bounce back from a humiliating 6-1 home defeat to Bayern Munich on Matchday 1 looks like a tall task. Head coach Oliver Glasner may soon find himself under mounting scrutiny despite leading ‘Die Adler’ to Europa League success in 2021/22. But he will rely on Frankfurt’s stellar recent record in Berlin that has seen them win each of their last three Bundesliga visits to Hertha for the first time in the club’s history. Glasner’s men head into proceedings in low spirits, seeking their first top-flight triumph since mid-March. Stretching back to the 2021/22 season, they are winless in nine Bundesliga outings on the trot (D5, L4).
