In a weekend match in week 19, on Saturday Jan 15th, Hertha BSC will travel to Wolfsburg to battle Wolfsburg in a meeting of these two Bundesliga teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cold day, and temperatures reaching a maximum of only 1 degrees, so hopefuly the match makes up for the weather. In their last match, 14th placed Wolfsburg, recorded a 0-1 loss against Bochum. Pantovic scored the first goal for Bochum in the 65th minute, and that was all the excitement the two teams could muster In the end, Wolfsburg couldn’t muster any offence and Bochum ran away with the shutout win. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 7 points in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, 13th placed Hertha BSC, recorded a 1-3 loss against Köln. Anthony Modeste scored the first goal for Köln in the 30th minute, then Ondrej Duda added another in the 32nd minute. Hertha BSC is looking for direction having 3 win and 4 losses in their last 10 matches.
In their last match together, in Olympiastadion Berlin, Wolfsburg won by a score of 2 to 1. Dodi Lukebakio struck first for Hertha BSC in the 60th minute on a penalty kick, but Ridle Baku got the equalizer for Wolfsburg in the 74th minute on a penalty kick But fortunately they were able to complete the comaback in the 88th minute on a goal by Lukas Nmecha.
Hertha BSC’s most prolific scorer has been Stevan Jovetić. The attacker has netted three goals over the last five matches. Renato Steffen and Wout Weghorst are the top scorers for Wolfsburg in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats
Florian Kohfeldt’s squad will be without Dodi Lukebakio, Lukas Nmecha, Admir Mehmedi, Xaver Schlager, Daniel Ginczek, Josuha Guilavogui, William and Paulo Otávio, while Tayfun Korkut’s Hertha BSC squad will be without Lucas Tousart, Rune Jarstein, Ishak Belfodil, Lukas Klünter, Santiago Ascacibar and Ruwen Werthmuller.
