Hertha’s form has flatlined
Our Hertha BSC Berlin vs SpVgg Greuther Furth prediction suggests Hertha BSC Berlin will be looking to bounce back from two straight defeats on Sunday when they welcome 17th-placed SpVgg Greuther Fürth to the Olympiastadion.
In their last five league games, Hertha have won once, drawn once and lost three times, with the two most recent results being a 1-0 home loss to Holstein Kiel and a 0-1 defeat away to Magdeburg.
Stefan Leitl took over as head coach in February 2025 and has been trying to establish a control-oriented style of play, with his team’s 4-2-3-1 system seeing a double pivot control possession while wide runners and an advanced playmaker look to create chances.
In the 16 home matches this season, Hertha have averaged 0.88 goals scored and 1.06 goals conceded per game, indicating that games at the Olympiastadion tend to be tight and tense.
The most advanced of Hertha’s players is attacking midfielder Fabian Reese, who has scored 10 goals in 31 league appearances so far this campaign.
Fürth have been in inconsistent form
This Hertha BSC Berlin vs SpVgg Greuther Furth preview shows Greuther Fürth’s form has been mixed since Heiko Vogel took over as manager in December 2025, with the club picking up one win, two draws and two defeats in their last five 2. Bundesliga games.
Vogel has introduced a more compact, structured system that is less inclined to go gung-ho than his predecessor’s and instead focuses on organised build-up play, pressing structure and turning over opponents.
Their 3-4-2-1 system uses the wing-backs to provide width and Fürth look to play vertically when they can, which suits their frontline players - in particular Noel Futkeu.
He has scored 17 times in 32 appearances for Fürth this campaign and has netted all five of their goals across the last five matches - making him a constant threat, especially on the counter attack.
Recent history points to a Hertha win and plenty of goals
The Hertha BSC Berlin vs SpVgg Greuther Furth prediction is influenced by Greuther’s away results, which have been poor this term, with the Kleeblatter losing 10 of their 16 trips and winning just four. Their recent fixtures have seen them edge out Darmstadt 3-2 at home, before taking a 1-1 draw at Nürnberg and losing 2-1 at Bochum.
This match should see an intriguing tactical battle between two teams with contrasting styles, which may result in a high-scoring game as both teams look to take advantage of the spaces left behind.
Hertha’s home record is 5 wins, 5 draws and 6 defeats from 16 matches, and they have won one, drawn one and lost one of their three meetings in all competitions.
The Hertha BSC Berlin vs SpVgg Greuther Furth betting tips suggest a repeat of the 3-3 thriller when these two met earlier this term is a real possibility, but Hertha will take the victory on this occasion at 1.82, with Over 2.5 goals at 1.38 and Both Teams to Score - Yes at 1.41 being two additional selections for this game.
