Karlsruher will be looking to build on their recent 2-0 victory over Munster, a much-needed result after three straight league defeats. However, our prediction points toward a 2-1 Hertha Berlin win as important defender is back to the starting XI. Despite missing Beifus, Kobald, and Rapp, the hosts coped well last time out, but their defensive vulnerabilities remain clear: they concede 2.67 goals per home match and have kept zero home clean sheets. Their xGA of 2.15 at home also highlights recurring structural problems. Karlsruher do score regularly—1.33 per home game—but fail to convert this into consistent points.
The capital club travel to Baden-Wurttemberg with stronger momentum, unbeaten in their last three away games and earning 2.33 points per game on the road. The return of experienced defender Toni Leistner is a major boost, especially as Kolbe and Krattenmacher remain doubtful. Hertha’s defensive record is solid, conceding just 1.00 goal per match overall and keeping 67% clean sheets away, while their attack is steady with 1.67 goals scored per away game.
With a dominant H2H record—6 wins from 11 meetings—and superior form, Hertha appear better equipped to control this encounter. Taking everything into account, Away Win should be considered alongside Hertha to Score First and Over 2.5 goals as 10 of their last 11 H2H encounters have featured 3 or more goals.
This Bundesliga 2 match will be played on Saturday 24 January 2026 at 12:00.
