Prediction: 1-1
Hertha
Nurnberg and Hertha square off against each other at Max-Morlock-Stadion in what is expected to be an interesting 2. Bundesliga game. The Bavarians aim to build on a 2-1 win over Bochum, but Sunday’s game will be anything but a walk in the park for the home side. Both Maboulou and Buchmann are sidelined with injuries, whereas Rafael Lubach should recover in time to face Hertha.
The capital club, on the other hand, failed to impress in a 2-0 loss to Paderborn. As both Hertha and Nurnberg will go for a win in Sunday’s encounter, we are tempted to bet on both teams to score. Dawid Kownacki is rated doubtful for the visiting team after picking up a knock against Paderborn, with Luca Schuler likely to step up. You should bear in mind that the two teams played out a goalless draw in their last meeting in the German second tier.
