Hertha with Langkamp and Baumjohann while Ben Hatira is a big doubt today.


Eintracht made a good match in Munich and should have scored in second half but wasted huge. They were almost even in second half and did a great job. This time it can be much harder because they have not so much space and Hertha allow not such open play as Bayern did. Theuerkauf is the first alternative for injured Caligiuri. Some other changes are possible, Lieberknecht has some options here with Perthel, Boland, Jackson and Korte.

Hertha had maybe the better chances but were not able to get it done therefore the draw was ok to Augsburg. Maybe they have to work to do better in front of the goal or improve. The time was there according to the early cup knock out they had no match during the week. Coach Luhukay could prepare and focus only on this game. If important midfield player Ben Hatira must pass, Schulz is the first option for him, also in central defensive is Brooks back from injury and an option.
