Our prediction for this Bundesliga 2 match:
Magdeburg will look to build on their hard-fought 1-0 victory over Regensburg as they host Hertha in an exciting 2. Bundesliga clash. The hosts have shown consistency in recent matches, and their solid defensive setup has been key to grinding out results. However, they will be without Marcus Mathisen, who is suspended for Friday's clash, potentially leaving a gap in their midfield organization.
Hertha, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form. Defensive problems have been a recurring issue, and with a lengthy injury list including players like Brooks, Dudziak, Karbownik, Gersbeck, Winkler, and Hussein, they face an uphill battle to turn things around. Given the visitors’ struggles at the back and the momentum Magdeburg carries into this fixture, we predict that the hosts are going to pick up all three points from the match. Last time out Magdeburg recorded a thrilling 6-4 win over Hertha at Avnet Arena.
