Game Preview

 
On Saturday, two teams will kick off their 2022-23 campaign in a derby when Union Berlin invites local rivals Hertha Berlin to Stadion An der Alten Försterei. This will be a memorable occasion, as it will be the first opening-day city derby in the Bundesliga since 1965 when 1860 Munich beat promoted Bayern Munich 1-0 at home.
 
Union Berlin managed to make it all the way to 5h place in the 2021-22 Bundesliga by winning 6 out of their last 7 games of the season. On the other hand Hertha didn’t have that great of a campaign as they had to play in the Bundesliga relegation playoffs, overcoming Hamburg 2-1 on aggregate to retain their top-flight status.
 
This is the 12th edition of the Berlin derby, and the record isn’t as one-sided as one would think. The two teams have also met 13 times in friendlies. In competitive fixtures, Union Berlin is boasting a 5-3 lead in wins, while three games have ended in draws.
 
Unfortunately for Hertha, they’ll be missing quite a few of their main players. Kelian Nsona is out with a ligament injury, while Marco Richter will only be back later this month following his tumor removal in July. Lucas Tousart will serve a suspension carried over from last season. Ngankam Jessic is struggling with a knee injury, while Dong-jun Lee is also injured.
 
It was a bit disappointing for their fans to see them only one point away from securing Champions League football for the first time, but they will still be delighted with a Europa League campaign to look forward to having competed in the Europa Conference League last season. It is expected for Union Berlin to have a strong start this campaign with Hertha probably being their first victim.
