Bayern Munich vs Hertha Berlin

, KO: 17:30 Aug 28, 2021, Allianz Arena
Hertha Berlin

Despite a few early season stumbles, Bayern Munich's title defence appears to still be on track as they host Hertha Berlin in a German Bundesliga fixture. The Allianz Arena is always a fortress for the Champions and they are expected to ease past Hertha Berlin, who are winless this season.

After a slight stumble in their opening fixture of the season, Bayern Munich appear to be slowly getting into their stride having won their last three matches across all competitions. They claimed a 3-1 victory over Dortmund to win the DFL Cup before beating Cologne 3-2 in their previous Bundesliga fixture.

Julian Naglesmann's men were also victorious in the DFB Pokal in midweek as a much-changed side triumphed 12-0 over fifth tier Bremer. The goals have also flowed freely for Bayern Munich, who have found the net 18 times in their last three matches across all competitions.

With closest challengers Dortmund and RB Leipzig looking unconvincing at the start of the season, Bayern Munich will be looking to steal an early march on their rivals. The one problem for the champions is their defence, which has conceded in their two Bundesliga fixtures this season.

Hertha Berlin battled relegation last season and finished just four points above the drop zone. They spent much of the campaign in the bottom half of the table and appear to have picked up where they left off this term.

Pal Dardai’s men have lost their opening two fixtures this season, starting with a 3-1 defeat to Cologne. They followed that up with a 2-1 loss at home to Wolfsburg with Dodi Lukebakio’s opener from the spot cancelled out by the visitors.

Hertha Berlin also appear to still have their defensive problems from last season and have conceded five goals already this season. They seem unable to hold on to leads, going in front in their two matches this season and getting pegged back both times.

The bookies have Bayern Munich as overwhelming favourites with a home win priced at 21/100 with novibet. An unlikely victory for Hertha Berlin is valued at a massive 14/1 with William Hill while bet365 is offering odds of 8/1 for a draw.
