Hertha Berlin v Bayer Leverkusen Betting Tips [18 May 2019]
The match
Bayer Leverkusen (fifth, 55 points) will hope to clinch the fourth and final Champions League qualification spot when they travel to Hertha Berlin (tenth, 43 points). The hosts do not have much to play for in this game, considering they can’t finish higher than tenth or lower than 12th. However, that shouldn’t mean they will make it easy for their visitors. An unbeaten four-match streak (W2, D2) is what Hertha bring to this fixture. They are also unbeaten in two home games (W1, D1), so expect the hosts to bring their A-game to this fixture. In addition, Hertha have scored seven goals in their last two games, and have scored at least two goals in three of their last five Bundesliga home fixtures. Leverkusen chase a return to the Champions League, following a two-season absence from Europe’s premier tournament. They need to better Monchengladbach’s result against Dortmund and equal or better Eintracht Frankfurt’s result against Bayern Munich. Should both Leverkusen and Gladbach win, it will come down to goals and hence Leverkusen need to win by two more goals than what Gladbach manage. At least Leverkusen have impressive form coming into the fixture remaining unbeaten in five Bundesliga games (W4, D1) and winning six of their last eight league trips (W6, L2).
Key Statistics
- Hertha have produced over 2.5 match goals in four of their last five Bundesliga home games.
- Leverkusen have produced over 2.5 match goals in eight of their last nine Bundesliga away games.
- Five of the last six Bundesliga H2H matches have produced over 2.5 match goals and goals at both ends.
The bet of our experts
There is so much riding on this game for Bayer Leverkusen considering their Champions League ambitions hinge on this result. Of course, there are so many other factors that will determine their final placing, but a Hertha Berlin side with nothing to lose could be a tough cookie. Expect goals to flow in this match.
