Europa League winners Eintracht found Bayern too good last Friday but will fancy their chances against Hertha who only escaped the drop via the relegation playoffs last season. Eintracht have only a few days break after their trip to Helsinki to face Real Madrid in the UEFA Super Cup, while Hertha have had all week to recover from a Berlin derby defeat against Union. Hertha conceded 71 goals last season, the second worst defence in the league, and will be looking to keep things tighter this season. All things considered, a draw could be a fair shout here with Eintracht potentially jaded from their trip to Helsinki. 1:1
