With both sides sitting just below the playoff line, this clash between SC Paderborn and Hertha BSC carries significant early-spring importance. As both sides are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach in Sunday's game, we predict a 2-2 draw. Paderborn head into the match with no fresh injury worries, and their recent form suggests momentum is building—especially at home, where they’ve recorded three straight wins and average 2.00 points per game. Offensively, they look sharp at the Benteler-Arena with 2.00 goals scored, supported by a strong 2.15 home expected goals, though defensive lapses still appear (1.60 conceded).
The capital club, meanwhile, arrive wounded both physically and mentally. Key players Demme, Eichhorn, Kolbe, Zeefuik, and Krattenmacher remain out, and the weekend’s 3–2 loss to Hannover highlighted their defensive fragility. Their overall form (0.90 PPG) is underwhelming, and they remain winless at home, though interestingly, their away numbers are stronger: 1.67 PPG, 2.67 goals scored, and a higher expected goals (1.70) on their travels.
Given aforementioned statistical data, our prediction firmly points toward Both Teams to Score, (both teams 70%+ BTTS), with additional value on Over 2.5 (62% H2H) and Over 3.5 goals.
This Bundesliga 2 match will be played on Sunday 22 February 2026 at 12:30.
