Dortmund vs Hertha Berlin prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2022-05-13 16:30.
Borussia Dortmundâs 3-1 win against already relegated FĂŒrth last time out mathematically secured a second-place Bundesliga finish, their sixth runners-up spot claimed across the last ten campaigns. While there is nothing riding on this game for the hosts, this will be Dortmund hitman Erling Haalandâs chance to say a final goodbye to Signal Iduna Park and the famous âYellow Wallâ before he departs for Manchester City.
Haaland has contributed to some significant entertainment on Dortmund soil of late, as seven of their last eight home games produced at least five goals (W4, L4). That sets this game up for a potentially exciting affair, particularly as Dortmund are the only side across Europeâs top-five leagues without a home stalemate this season (W12, L4). Incredibly, those home fixtures have also produced a Bundesliga-high 4.81 goals per match!
A 2-1 defeat to Mainz last time out means Hertha Berlinâs survival fight goes down to this final matchday. With a three-point cushion, but a considerably worse goal difference (-33) than Stuttgart (-19) heading into the final day, Hertha must do all they can to get at least a point from this game or else all eyes will turn to matters at Stuttgartâs Mercedes-Benz Arena.
Despite the onus being on the visitors to get a result, Hertha remain priced up as outsiders. Alarmingly, Hertha possess a worse unbeaten rate as pre-match outsiders in Bundesliga games (35%) than all but Dortmund. Adding further doubts to Herthaâs survival bid is the fact only three sides have a lower away points haul than Felix Magathâs side (W3, D3, L10), which suggests their battle to avoid the drop will go down to the wire.
Players to watch: Haaland leaves Dortmund with the record of both the fastest player (50 games) and the youngest player to reach 50 Bundesliga goals. Now on 61 Bundesliga strikes, he looks to bow out by building on his four goals in three H2Hs against Hertha. Meanwhile, Marco Richter will look for a repeat of his second-half double in Herthaâs 3-2 win in the reverse fixture.
Hot stat: Hertha are currently enduring the longest streak of losing on the final day amongst all 18 Bundesliga teams (L5).
