Prediction: 1-0
Hertha Berlin
All eyes will be on Stadion An der Alten Forsterei when Union Berlin and Hertha Berlin square off against each other in the local derby on Saturday. Union Berlin have quickly established themselves as a top-table side in the Bundesliga, with the team representing Germany in European competitions for yet another term. There are no injury worries in the home team ahead of the season opener, while both Jordan Siebatcheu and Jamie Leweling are likely to make their official Union Berlin debuts against Hertha.
The visitors, on the other hand, suffered an unexpected loss to Braunschweig in their DFB Pokal opener, which is probably the main reason why we are going to put our money on the hosts this time out. Both Kelian Nsona and Marco Richter are out of contention with injuries, while there are no suspended players in the visiting team ahead of the Berlin derby.
