Bayer Leverkusen take on the visitors Hertha Berlin in the round 17 match of German Bundesliga. The match will be played on Sunday, January 22nd at BayArena (Leverkusen).
Bayer finished the first part of the season in Bundesliga with disappointing 1-2 defeat to Ingolstadt and 1-1 draw with Koln. The team can’t be happy with their current place as they are only ninth in the league with 21 points gained in 16 matches and the only positive result of the first part of the season is gained place in Champions League playoffs. The team should improve their home results as they’ve gained only 11 points in eight home matches, failing to win at home since November fifth and recording defeats to Leipzig and Ingolstadt, 2-3 and 1-2, 1-1 draw with Freiburg in recent home matches. Last five league games got the team only four points.

Hertha should be happy with results they show in the league this season. The visiting side is currently third in the league with 30 points gained in 16 matches with 24 goals scored and 16 allowed. The Berliners played eight matches on the road and gained only nine points in these matches. The team isn’t strong in away matches and lost their recent voyage at Leipzig, 0-2.
Leverkusen side is more successful in recent matches between the teams. In addition to quite mediocre record of Hertha in away matches, we should expect the hosting side to prevail in the match. Leverkusen side has better players in their first team and it’s time to prove their class and get involved into a battle for top-four.
Prediction for the match: Bayer Leverkusen to win.
