THE PREDICTION
Hertha have come into form at just the right time and could ensure their safety while simultaneously sending Koln down if they come out on top in this relegation six-pointer and other results go against the visitors. The Berliners extended their unbeaten run to seven games with a 2-1 win at Schalke on Wednesday, and they are also undefeated in five at home. Second-from-bottom Koln, meanwhile, failed to build on back-to-back wins last weekend, going down to a 4-1 defeat at Freiburg. The Billy Goats have been leaking goals lately, particularly on their travels, so they are unlikely to repeat their 5-0 success on their last visit to the Olympiastadion. Hertha have conceded just twice in their last four games, and with their new-found solidity they look good value to win.
