Hertha Berlin return to Bundesliga action after being promoted from Germany’s second-tier last season, and will look to start their 2011-12 campaign with a bang against Nurnberg at the Olympic Stadium.
Markus Babbel led the Blue and Whites to a table topping 2010-11 in the Bundesliga 2, and his side will now face a tougher challenge back amongst the big boys. The outfit have had a difficult pre-season, getting beaten by Real Madrid and Young Boys, but overcoming Hapoel Tel Aviv. The squad has been reinforced in the summer by the double signing of Andreas Ottl and Thomas Kraft from Bayer Munich, and the pair should get their debuts in this game. Titan Bet give the home side odds of 2.18 to win.
Nurnberg ended the 2010-11 season in sixth place, one spot out of the European places, which was a great effort from the side from the Frankenstadion. Dieter Hecking has an exciting young squad at his disposal, with Czech Under-21 forward Tomas Pekhart and defender Philipp Wollscheid two of the main shining lights. Titan Bet offer odds of 3.16 for an away win.
The Hertha Berlin fans will back their side’s first match back in the Bundesliga, and should steer them to victory. My Bundesliga football betting tip is a 3-1 win to Hertha Berlin, with the home side winning at half time and full time at odds of 3.53 according to Titan Bet.
