Hertha Berlin vs Heidenheim Prediction & Betting Tips (30 October)

Heidenheim have collected just two points from a possible 24 on the road of late, whilst they have failed to score more than a single goal in 14 consecutive top-flight trips. Hertha Berlin, on the other hand, clearly know what they are doing on their own patch, winning six of their last seven league fixtures and outscoring their opponents by 19 goals to three across these wins.

It would be fair to say that Hertha Berlin are rarely involved in low-scoring encounters in the DFB Pokal, as 13 of their most recent 15 matches have produced at least two goals. Given that nine of the previous 12 Heidenheim away games at this level have followed the same pattern, it would come as a surprise were this crucial contest not to deliver over 2.5 goals.

Both teams have found the net in 11 of the most recent 15 Heidenheim away games in the DFB Pokal, so Heidenheim can hardly be accused of keeping things tight when they take to the road. Hertha Berlin have been similarly entertaining on their own patch of late, with nine of their last 12 top-flight fixtures delivering goals at both ends, so clean sheets could prove hard to come by.
