Greuther Furth vs Hertha Berlin Prediction
Greuther Furth have won just one of their last six league outings and sit at the bottom of the table with the worst attacking and defensive record in the league.
Hertha Berlin are not in much better form than their hosts as they are on a five-game winless run across all competitions. They have failed to win any of their last five league games on the road and that run could continue this weekend.
Prediction: Greuther Furth 1-1 Hertha Berlin
