Players to Watch

Erling Haaland scored four goals in 32 minutes the last time Borussia Dortmund met Hertha Berlin. And he goes into this weekend’s fixture in excellent form, having scored twice in each of the last two games. The Hertha defenders will certainly not be looking forward to going up against the goal machine.

Mahmoud Dahoud continued his impressive run of form against Sevilla on Tuesday. He will have a key role to play this weekend against a Hertha Berlin side that will look to sit back and defend for the majority of the game.

With top scorer Matheus Cunha still out, Dodi Lukebakio and Jhon Córdoba will have to come up with the good in attack for Hertha this weekend. Lukebakio came off the bench and scored the winner last weekend against Augsburg, and he could be a handful for the Dortmund defence. He has one goal and two assists in five appearances against the Black and Yellows.
