Team News

Hoffenheim
Hertha Berlin
  • Chris Richards is touch and go to make this one with his thigh injury, while Munnas Dabbur is back home in Israel on compassionate leave.
  • Mijat Gacinovic is suspended after accumulating five yellow cards.
  • Reliable keeper Oliver Baumann will miss the final game of the season with back-up Philipp Pentke filling in between the sticks.
  • Sebastian Rudy is struggling with a thigh injury, as is Kevin Akpoguma.
  • Ryan Sessegnon could return to the starting line-up along with Marco John who is over a hip injury.
  • Sargis Adamyan is over a thigh injury and Ishak Belfodil has recovered from a back injury to boost options in attack.
  • Benjamin Hubner, Konstantinos Stafylidis, Ermin Bicakcic and Håvard Nordtveit are all long-term absentees. Dennis Geiger is also ruled out for the rest of the season with a thigh injury.
  • Striker Jhon Cordoba has an ankle injury, but Dodi Lukebakio and Vladimir Darida are both available after suspension, but defender Jordan Torunarigha is on the naughty step after picking up his fifth yellow card.
  • Arsenal loanee Matteo Guendouzi broke his foot, while Maximilian Mittelstädt should return after concussion.
  • Sami Khedira is struggling with a calf problem and has announced his retirement at the end of the season. Matheus Cunha has an ankle injury.
  • Skipper Dedryck Boyata had not featured at all this year, but made his starting comeback earlier this month and has bolstered a brittle backline.
  • Rune Jarstein has tested positive for COVID-19. Alexander Schwolow will play in goal.
  • Luca Netz is ruled out after a fracturing his foot.

Prediction

  • Hoffenheim are unbeaten in six, showing good spirit, twice in their last four games coming back from two goals down to win well.
  • This is relegation-threatened Hertha's sixth game in less than three weeks following a COVID-19 enforced break, but the capital city side are unbeaten in eight games, saving themselves from relegation.
  • The heavy workload, injuries and suspensions could catch up with Hertha here allowing a home win.
