Bayern Munich had a shaky preseason and were unconvincing at the start of the season, but they’ve found their touch and have been devastating lately. They will host Hertha Berlin in the third week of Bundesliga, hoping to go top of the standings. Bayern have four points, in fourth place while Hertha Berlin are bottom with no point. The champions played their rescheduled German Cup game against Bremer SV right before this clash, and won 12-0 for their third straight win. That was their only clean sheet in 10 matches and just as before, their defending remains an issue. Bayern thrive on outscoring opponents and going to this, they’ve scored two or more goals in the last three matches. They have just one clean sheet in their last five league matches but they’ve scored two or more in the last four and are unbeaten in the five. At home, they have four straight wins and a 28-match unbeaten run in the league. Robert Lewandowski has carried his hot streak to this season, and in his last four matches, he’s scored four. Both teams have scored in seven of Bayern’s last 10 matches.

Hertha Berlin had a tough campaign last season, finishing only two points above the drop zone and a massive 37 behind Bayern Munich. They are so far the poorest in the Bundesliga, rooted at the bottom without a point. Their only clean sheet in the last eight matches was against lower tier side Meppen in the German Cup. In the opening two matches alone, they’ve conceded five goals and haven’t managed more than a goal in that run. They’re in for a torrid outing here. Ahead of this game, they lost to Wolfsburg, in a game they scored first but failed to hold on. The same applies to the earlier game – they scored first against FC Cologne, but went on to lose 3-1. Hertha have no win in four straight league matches, losing three and keeping just one clean sheet while conceding two or more in three. In 14 away league matches, they have one win and both sides have scored in seven of their last 10 away league games.
