Hertha BSC, Recent FormBuilding up confidence within his squad will be a priority for Hertha BSC supremo Sandro Schwarz after sustaining a heavy 4-1 away loss to Bayer Leverkusen. They came away from that fixture with 38% of the possession and clocked up 7 attempts on goal with 2 on target. By comparison, Bayer Leverkusen managed 16 attempts on goal, with 9 on target.
Having lost 14 goals in their past 6 matches, Schwarz will surely be casting a critical eye over his defensive line, even though his team managed to pick up some points along the way due to the 8 goals they scored. This season, their defensive frailties have certainly been apparent, having conceded at least 1 goal in 20 of their 23 league games.
Losing 4 of their last 6 outings will not be looked on kindly by their manager; however, they did salvage some valuable points by winning the other 2 games.
Having scored 3 goals in his last 6 league games for Hertha BSC, Dodi Lukébakio will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
Mainz 05, Recent FormMainz 05 have set themselves up nicely for this match by securing a 1-0 home win against 1899 Hoffenheim in their previous league match. In that game they recorded 47 % of the possession, with 16 attempts on goal, 6 on target. Their opponents found the target on 3 of their 15 shots on goal.
Bo Svensson will be very satisfied with his team's ability to find the net, with 17 goals in their last 6 matches; however, he will be less pleased with his back line, who have lost 7 goals during those same matches. They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games. Given that they have scored in 10 of their away games this season, their travelling support will be feeling optimistic about a good result whenever they are on their travels.
They've had a good run of form recently, with 4 straight wins in a row.
Away from home in the league, Marcus Ingvartsen has given the Mainz 05 travelling fans plenty to get excited about, with 5 goals from their last 6 games on the road.
Last time they met both teams got on the scoresheet, but the match ended in a 1-1 draw.
In their previous 4 encounters with Die Nullfünfer, Hertha have shipped at least one goal in those matches.
Mainz have proven they're a capable side against Hertha in the league and are unbeaten in their last 7 league encounters.
Hertha manager Sandro Schwarz has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Chidera Ejuke (Knee), Wilfried Kanga (Toe), Jessic Ngankam (Knee) and Kélian Nsona (Cruciate ligament) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With only Jonathan Burkardt (Knee) and Karim Onisiwo (Knee) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Bo Svensson will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
