Hertha BSC (9-1-0, 1st) host VfL Wolfsburg (5-4-1, 4th) at Olympiastadion in a major 2. Bundesliga match on Saturday evening.
The hosts have picked up 13 of their last 15 available points (4-1-0), outscoring their opposition 8-2 in that span. The visitors are also unbeaten in their last five meetings (3-2-0), outscoring their opponents 15-7 - but due to a string of early draws plus a late 0-1 loss to FC St. Pauli in September, they can only move up to third at best, overtaking 1. FC Kaiserslautern in the process with a win.
Hertha are 14-11-13 against Wolfsburg in their all-time head-to-head record; at the Olympiastadion, their record is 7-6-5. The two sides last met in a friendly in October 2025, won by Hertha with a 2-1 result - but their last competitive meetings were in the Bundesliga during the 2022/23 season, with Wolfsburg winning 5-0 in Berlin and Hertha winning 2-1 at Volkswagen Arena.
Here are the confirmed lineups for Stefan Leitl's Hertha BSC and Tobias Strobl's VfL Wolfsburg. Kickoff is set for 20.30 (CET), and the match is being broadcast nationally across Germany on RTL Nitro.
