Hertha Berlin host Bayern Munich on Friday in what is sure to be a long day at the office for the Berlin side.

Pal Dardai's team will go into the contest knowing that a Bayern Munich rout could see his side end the night in the relegation zone.

Hansi Flick, on the other hand, will be looking to extend his side's lead at the top of the Bundesliga. Bayern Munich currently sit seven points ahead of RB Leipzig on the table, as they march on towards the Bundesliga title.

Hertha could not be facing Bayern Munich at a worse time, with Dardai's side currently on a three-match losing streak. The Bavarians, on the other hand, will make it five wins in a row with a victory in Berlin.

Hertha will know that a draw against Bayern might be the best that they can hope for on Friday. However, Hansi Flick's men will be keen to put their opponents to the sword.


Hertha Berlin vs Bayern Munich Head-to-Head
