Hertha BSC, Recent FormHertha BSC will be reasonably happy to come away from their match against Freiburg with a 1-1 draw and a valuable point. They achieved 42% possession in that match and had 10 strikes at goal, with 3 hitting the target, up against Freiburg's tally of 16 efforts at goal, 8 of which were on target.
Manager Sandro Schwarz will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 13 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 7 goals they managed at the other end. Having shipped at least a single goal in 23 of their 26 league matches this season, they don't have an enviable defensive record this campaign.
Having drawn 2 of their last 6 games they have at least put some points on the table, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
RB Leipzig, Recent FormBuilding up confidence within his squad will be a priority for RB Leipzig supremo Marco Rose after sustaining a heavy 3-0 home loss to Mainz 05. Their share of possession in that meeting was 69%, while racking up 12 shots along the way, 3 of which were on target. Mainz 05 had 19 shots on goal with 7 on target.
When it comes to attacking power Rose will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 9 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 7 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. Away goals have been high on their agenda recently, having scored in 4 of their last 6 away league games.
In terms of results, it's been a bit of a mixed bag for RB Leipzig recently, having won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6 games.
On an individual basis, Christopher Nkunku will be looking to cause Hertha BSC some problems having scored 4 goals in RB Leipzig's last 6 away games in the league.
The 3-2 victory which RB Leipzig recorded last time these two sides met was no surprise to most.
The Hertha defence has struggled against Die Roten Bullen in past meetings, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 13 games. When RB Leipzig visit Die Alte Dame in the league, goals tend to happen, with 13 from their previous 3 encounters and a scoring average of 4.33 goals per match.
RB Leipzig have dominated this away fixture in the past, winning the last 6 times in a row that they have played Hertha at Olympiastadion Berlin in the league.
RB Leipzig man Timo Werner will be out for more of the same in front of goal in this match against Hertha, having bagged 5 goals in the last 3 encounters between these sides at Olympiastadion Berlin.
Hertha manager Sandro Schwarz has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Jean-Paul Boëtius (Shoulder), Chidera Ejuke (Knee), Tjark Ernst (Ankle), Stevan Jovetić (Calf), Marc-Oliver Kempf (Hip), Jessic Ngankam (Knee), Kélian Nsona (Cruciate ligament) and Ivan Šunjić (Personal reasons) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Marco Rose has a number of injury concerns in his RB Leipzig squad to contend with: Péter Gulácsi (Cruciate ligament), Christopher Nkunku (Hamstring), Yussuf Poulsen (Calf) and Xaver Schlager (Ligament)
