Leitl's Christmas Wish: 30 Points in 'Crazy' League - Hertha BSC eyes promotion boost with critical win over Bielefeld
Hertha BSC still has a chance at promotion despite two recent matches without a win. A victory against Arminia Bielefeld this weekend would push them to 130 points before the winter break. Meanwhile, Bielefeld are desperate to end their own long winless run in the league.
Hertha BSC enters the game without midfielder Maurice Krattenmacher, who picked up a minor ankle injury. However, striker Dawid Kownacki will play despite a collision in training earlier this week.
The match carries high stakes for both sides. Hertha BSC could reach 130 points with a victory, strengthening their promotion push. Bielefeld, meanwhile, will fight to break their winless streak and gain momentum before the winter break.
