Union Berlin vs. Hertha BSC – The Berlin Derby
While the Unioner finished last season in 5th place and are competing in the Europa League this year, Hertha narrowly escaped relegation in the relegation. The game between Union Berlin and Hertha BSC could therefore point the way for both clubs. Union would like to continue the good run, Hertha BSC hopes for a stable season without relegation worries.
Consequently, the blue and whites have repositioned themselves for the season: the club has presented a new president in Kay Bernstein, a new coach in Sandro Schwarz and already six newcomers. In particular, the new wingers from Chidera Ejuke and returnee Dodi Lukébakio could still bring joy to the Hertha fans.
But Union is also positioning itself more broadly for the first Europa League season in the club’s history. Manager Oliver Ruhnert has hit the transfer market nine times so far. With the signing of Jordan Siebatcheu, he hopes to have found an adequate replacement for star departure Taiwo Awoniyi.
