Stefan Leitl, Hertha's head honcho, claims a psychological advantage against Eintracht Braunschweig in their relegation dogfight, despite some recent setbacks. "Pal, the pressure's on Braunschweig. They're yearning to win, they're eager to claw back points. They're putting the squeeze on themselves," Leitl taunted, ahead of Sunday's 2. Bundesliga dust-up (13:30 CET, Sky).
Leitl remains optimistic that his squad will deliver a bold performance akin to their second-half showing against Schalke 04 last weekend, despite failing to snatch a point despite dominating the game. "We just couldn't find the back of the net," Leitl lamented, reminiscing about the countless opportunities missed.
Hertha's Desperate Situation
Seven games without victory has left Braunschweig in dire straits in 16th place, just a point shy of the relegation zone, with Hertha nestled safely in 14th. The Eagles have managed to slash a six-point deficit on the Berliners since the winter break.
"We're in a pickle, three points clear, and we've been warned," Leitl acknowledged, choosing to eschew pessimism. "Our focus needs to be on delivering top-tier performance. Then we'll take the win home."
As for lineup changes, minor tweaks are anticipated. Pascal Klemens will continue to patrol the defensive midfield, while Diego Demme could return to the fray. Leitl remains adamant about sticking with Tjark Ernst in goal, despite his recent gaffe.
