Hertha is expecting the RB Leipzig team on Sunday evening. In Berlin, one does not have particularly good memories of guest performances by the Saxons…
► RB Leipzig likes to go to games against Hertha BSC in Berlin. So far, the Saxons have won all five Bundesliga games at Hertha. In general, the Leipzig lost in eleven games and played once in a draw. RB has a win rate of 82 percent.
► RB scored 3.55 goals in the eleven Bundesliga games against Hertha and scored at least twice in every game.
► RB Leipzig have won five of their eight Bundesliga games under Domenico Tedesco. That’s as many wins as in the 14 Bundesliga games under Jesse Marsch. Since Tedesco took office, only FC Bayern have scored more points in the Bundesliga with 18 points than Saxony, who have collected 16 points.
► With just nine points after nine Bundesliga games, Tayfun Korkut experienced the weakest start by a Herthan coach since Otto Rehhagel in 2012, who scored eight points. At that time, Hertha ended up in 16th place and was relegated to the relegation.
► 18 RB players share the 39 goals scored against Hertha so far. Of course, Timo Werner, who now plays for Chelsea, scored the most of them with eight goals. From the current RB squad, Yussuf Poulsen (4) and Willi Orban (3) scored the most against the Berliners.
Hertha BSC against RB Leipzig is Sunday at 7.30 p.m. here in the BZ live ticker!
