Hertha Berlin hosts Mainz in round 12 of the German Bundesliga. The match will be played on Tuesday, December 15th at Olympiastadion (Berlin)
Hertha has gained good shape in the last rounds. In general, the Old Lady cannot be pleased with the start of the championship. Yes, there was a victory in the opening round, but it was followed by four defeats in a row. Nevertheless, Bruno Labbadia's players were able to get in good shape in November. Now they have not lost three times in a row. There was even a victory over Union Berlin in the capital derby, but it was associated with an early sending-off. If desired, the draw in Monchengladbach can be explained by the tight schedule of the opponent that played in the Champions League last week. Still, one should praise Hertha, which recovered from the failure in the first part of autumn and gradually pulled away from the relegation zone by half a dozen points.

Mainz maximally does not live up to its nickname. The fans call it the Carnival club. It even made it to the European Cups, but the struggle for survival has become a more urgent task for the team in recent years. Going along the edge, the club managed to get enough points to stay in the Bundesliga. Now the players fought better in the offices, having achieved the dismissal of the previous coach. But the things on the pitch are much worse. There was a good segment after the failed start, when the team gained a draw with Schalke, and, most importantly, beat Freiburg and tied with Hoffenheim at home. However, these five points are the only achievement of Lichte's team in this championship. Having lost to Arminia and FC Koln in December, the Carnival club finally got stuck in the relegation zone. Competitors are gradually moving away, and how can the situation be rectified without at least another change of coach?
In the last seven head-to-head matches, Hertha gained only one victory and a draw. Mainz won all other games, including both matches of the last Bundesliga draw (2-1 at home, 3-1 in Berlin). Hertha had regained its shape by the beginning of winter, and now it should try to take vengeance upon Mainz for previous misfires. We will bet on the hosts’ victory.
Prediction for the match: Hertha Berlin to win
