These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.
Hertha BSC form and stats
0-1-3 (win-draw-lost) are the Bundesliga numbers at home for Hertha BSC, who have the the worst goal difference (-7) at home in Bundesliga, so far this season.
Hertha BSC shared the glory with Bayer Leverkusen in their last match, an away game that ended all square 0-0. Preceding that match was a defeat to Borussia Dortmund (2-5).
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Hertha have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites).

Union Berlin form and stats
2-2-0 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Union Berlin in their Bundesliga matches away. Berlin has recorded two wins in a row in their away matches and hold legitimate hopes of a third one.
Union Berlin played 3-3 against Eintracht Frankfurt in their previous match. Ahead of that match was the victory versus Köln at their stadium, the result 2-1.
Drawing 3-3 against Eintracht Frankfurt after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 2-0. Their manager U. Fischer needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result. A crazy, crazy match with lots of goals last time out for Union Berlin, as mentioned above. 6 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun?
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found six similar matches played by Union Berlin in our archives, and the results are: one win for Berlin, two draws and three defeats.
