Two teams that are coming off nice wins last week will lock horns on Saturday, when Dortmund will play host to Hertha Berlin. Dortmund destroyed Paderborn in a very easy match, while Hertha Berlin have been really fresh and really good after the forced break.

Dortmund (18-5-6) were really quiet in the first half of their away match against Paderborn last week, but exploded in the second half with six goals to win that match by a massive 6-1. They were coming off a bad loss to Bayern Munich that pretty much destroyed any title hopes they had. Dortmund are sitting 2nd in the league table with 60 points, seven behind Bayern Munich but only two ahead of RB Leipzig. They have the 2nd best home record (10-1-3), where they have won six of their last seven matches in all competitions.

Hertha Berlin (10-11-8) are clearly the surprise package after the break in the Bundesliga with three wins and a draw. Last week they did a great job to beat Augsburg by a slim, but confident 0-2 at home. They have now scored multiple goals in each of their last six matches. Hertha Berlin are sitting at the 9th spot of the league table with 38 points, four behind the top-six spots that lead to European competitions next season. They have a 5-4-5 record on the road, where they are undefeated in their last eight matches in all competitions (4-0-4).

Dortmund won in the reverse fixture by 2-1 on the road, and are now undefeated in the last five matches against Hertha Berlin (3-0-2). They are also undefeated in their last six matches as hosts against Hertha Berlin (3-0-3), but kept just two clean sheets in the process. I expect a high-scoring match here, so I am going with the Over 3.25 Goals here (-123).
