Hertha

After the winter break, Hertha played two matches in the 2.Bundesliga, getting a draw with Fortuna Düsseldorf and losing away to Wechen 1:3. After 19 played, Hertha occupies the 10th place and is unlikely to really claim a place in the top three. So, the German Cup is the most important tournament for Hertha. Their home stats are eighth in the league, +4=3-2, 21:9 goal difference. Note that Hertha's home defense is not all bad, with only nine goals in 9 games, i.e., exactly one goal per home meet on average.

Kaiserslautern

This year, Kaiserslautern held two matches, losing away to St. Pauli 0-2 and defeating at home Schalke 4:1. In their case, the German Cup is the most important tournament for Kaiserslautern, too, given the current roster because the team has few real chances to rise to the elite of German football. After 19 rounds, Kaiserslautern is 14th in the standings with 21 points, only one point ahead of Eintracht.

Expert Betting Tips

Hertha is having a weak season, but they have history and tradition. In addition, the Berliners have been very good at home recently, while Kaiserslautern is just an outsider in the German top flight, fighting for a place in the 2. Bundesliga next season. The bookmakers logically make the hosts the favorite for the upcoming match.
