Koln
Match Time & Date:

17:30
Prediction: 1-0
Hertha
RheinEnergieStadion will host Sunday’s Bundesliga encounter between Koln and Hertha. The Billy Goats head into the match after surviving Jena in the DFB Pokal, and, no doubt, they will have a much bigger fish to fry against Hertha. Dominick Drexler has recovered from coronavirus, while Jannes-Killian Horn remains on the sidelines with a hip injury. Hertha, on the other hand, eliminated lower-league side Meppen in their opener thanks to Davie Selke’s late goal.
The capital club aim to give fans yet another reason for celebration, but given Koln’s impressive pre-season, we predict that the visitors will return to Berlin empty-handed. Jarstein remains in the recovery room for the visiting team. Summer signing Suat Serdar, on the other hand, is likely to make his Bundesliga debut with Hertha against Koln. You should bear in mind that the two teams played out a goalless draw in each of their previous two meetings in the German top flight.
