THE PREDICTION
Borussia Dortmund might still be wondering how they ended up losing 4-2 at Bayern Munich last Saturday having led 2-0 inside the opening 10 minutes, but progressing to the quarter-finals of the Champions League in midweek will have helped ease the pain. Their focus is now on climbing back into the Champions League places in the Bundesliga and their home form has improved since Edin Terzic took charge at the end of last year. The Black and Yellows have won three and drawn two of their last five league matches at Signal-Iduna-Park, although they were still drawing at half-time in all five. Hertha, who ended a nine-game winless run with victory over Augsburg last weekend, will set out to be difficult to break down but it is hard to see them containing the likes of Erling Haaland over 90 minutes, so the Half Time/Full Time market looks an appealing option for this match.
