VfL Bochum - Hertha BSC Berlin

Things are going to be a bit frustrating in Bochum above all they expected much more from their team but they were not able to use their excellent situations infront of the goal. They played very well and created a lot of good opportunities but what happened is well known. The young team maybe need some time but time is not there if we take a look at the table. This is exactly the situation who no one want from the management, manager, coach and so on. After an average until bad start they are one point above the red zone and the pressure is there now. They have to bring the performance on the pitch and they should immediately use their opportunities to score. With only 5 goals they are at the bottom of this stats. At home with 1-2-2 and 4-5 goals not so bad at all but overall to less. Coach Bergmann has some hope because he gets some players back. With Aydin a long term injured players returns but maybe only on bench, also Delura, Acquistapace and Toski returns into training. This gives Bergmann more options and also maybe more punch infront of the goal. Defender Sinkiewicz is doubtful and face a last test but they hope that he can play while Rzatkowski sit on bench.

Giant Hertha with a very bad start into the season maybe this was because of some changes and new players also new coach who have to know each other a bit better and also the new tactic and system from Coach Luhukay. Overall they get their way and they managed their bad period and showed some uptrend in the past although many problems in their defensive with injured players. This is not solved for the match against Bochum because with Janker, Franz, Bastians, Radjabali-Fardi and Kobiashvili are many players still out. Hubnik is back but it is not confirmed if he stands in starting eleven or first on bench. Absolutely sure is that young defender Brooks gets another match as starter according to his good performance against 1860 Munich and training. Also the other positions should be not changed much as Luhukay mentioned. In this case Sahar, Allagui and Ronny must sit on bench, 3rd one is a doubt according to news as he was ill as I read. 

Overall Hertha is back on track but had some problems away from home this season and they won only a single match from four. Additional their scoring rate is also not the best. It is not an easy match for them and I expect that they get problems. Bochum showed against Kaiserslautern that they are able to be an equal opponent and are hard nut.
