Our prediction for this Bundesliga 2 match:
Following three consecutive draws in the 2. Bundesliga, Hertha will be aiming to return to winning ways in the 2. Bundesliga when they take on Elversberg on Matchday 15. The capital club are eight points behind the playoffs berth, meaning that Sunday’s clash is of big importance for the home side. All Bence Dardai, Jeremy Dudziak, Palko Dardai, Ibrahim Maza, and Agustin Rogel remain on the sidelines with injuries.
Elversberg, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Schalke and Paderborn, but seeing that Hertha are tough to beat at home, we are tempted to place our bets on draw. Midfielder Carlo Sickinger is sidelined through suspension, while all Wahid Faghir, Marcel Correia, and Patryk Dragon remain on the sidelines with injuries. It has to be noted that the two sides face each other for the first time in the German second tier.
