An important duel in the bottom section of the Bundesliga, with both Hertha BSC and Schalke 04 experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 14th and the visitors in 18th place.
- Schalke 04 has the fewest scored goals (8) in Bundesliga
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Hertha BSC form and stats
Hertha BSC's struggle is real here at Olympiastadion Berlin with only 5 points collected from 6 Bundesliga games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-2-3.
In their previous game, the manager B. Labbadia led his Hertha to a defeat in the Bundesliga match away at Freiburg. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Olympiastadion Berlin. In the match before that, Hertha hosted Mainz 05 and drew the game 0-0.
Hertha has scored 7 league goals at home this season, in 6 matches. Hertha BSC are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (12 from 6 played).
Schalke 04 form and stats
Schalke 04, who have the fewest scored goals (8) in Bundesliga, have only collected 2 points from their away games in the Bundesliga, after 0-2-4 (6 played). Schalke 04 are desperate to end a 13-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the Bayern München fixture.
Schalke 04 have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 209 minutes ago. N. Boujellab was the goal scorer.
Preceding that, the 0-1 home loss versus Arminia Bielefeld.
The visitors have scored 5 goals from 6 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. There are big problems for the Schalke 04 defense as they have conceded 23 goals in 6 away games.
