With their 5 point advantage in the league table, Wolfsburg fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against Hertha BSC.
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 have only collected 9 points from their away games in the Bundesliga, after 2-3-4 (9 played).
Hertha BSC aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 206 league minutes without a goal. K. Rekik was the last player to find the net.
Hertha BSC failed to get anything from their last game, a Bundesliga home match vs Bayern München (placed 2nd) that ended with defeat 0-4. Preceding that match was the 0-0 draw at home vs Borussia M'gladbach.
Hertha BSC lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-4 beating and focus on this one. Hertha BSC goalkeeper Rune Jarstein had a great day against Bayern München, but despite making 6 saves the loss could not be avoided.
