LiontipsUnion Berlin vs Hertha. Prediction and Betting Tips for Bundesliga
Command Analysis
Union Berlin managed to beat Hemnitzer only in extra-time (2:1), but team advanced into the next round and that's what really matters. The Iron Ones had a successful previous season, they finished 5th in the league and earned a spot in the Europa League. They could've even reach the Champions League zone, but finished just one point shy of the 4th-placed Leipzig.
During the summer team signed Morten Thorsby, Jamie Leweling and Jordan Siebatcheu. Two important players, Marcus Ingvartsen and Taiwo Awoniyi, left the team.
Previous season almost ended in a disaster for Hertha. Club was one step away from relegation to the 2. Bundesliga. Team finished 16th in the standings and had to play relegation play-off matches against Hamburg. Opponent won the first match (1:0), but Berliners mounted a comeback in a second leg and kept their Bundesliga spot (2:0).
Club was mostly quiet on a transfer market this summer. Such players as Jessic Ngankam, Wilfried Kanga, Filip Uremovic, Jonjoe Kenny were brought into the club, while Arne Maier, Javairo Dilrosun, Jordan Torunarigha and some reserve players left the team.
