Hertha vs Greuther Furth Prediction, H2H Stats & Statistical Bets 11 October 2026
🔊 Hertha will host Greuther Fürth in Berlin in the 7th round of the 2. Bundesliga. The hosts have started the season without dropping a point and have already established themselves as one of the most prolific teams in the division. The visitors are picking up points at a considerably slower rate and have so far been unable to find any consistency in defence. Greuther Fürth are capable of posing a threat going forward, though, so Hertha need not only to make their class advantage count but also to avoid unnecessary mistakes at the back.
Head-to-head encounters promise plenty of goal-scoring opportunities
📊 In recent meetings, Hertha have had the better of things: in May 2026 the Berliners won at home 2-1, and in December 2025 the two sides played out an eventful 3-3 draw. Head-to-head statistics show that both teams scored in 75% of the matches considered, and the average yellow card count pointed to the likelihood of several bookings. The head-to-head record does not guarantee a repeat of that pattern, but it does confirm that Greuther Fürth are capable of causing problems even for a stronger opponent.
Head-to-head statistics Hertha - Greuther Furth

Hertha’s attack delivers results
Hertha have won all six of their opening league matches, picking up 18 points. In that run they have scored 17 goals and conceded seven. Their last five fixtures included wins over Dynamo Dresden (2-1), Osnabrück (3-1), Magdeburg (2-1) and Eintracht Braunschweig (5-3), as well as a 1-1 draw with Saarbrücken in the DFB-Pokal in normal time (winning 4-2 on penalties). That run suggests the team are capable of maintaining a high tempo and finding ways through even in difficult matches.
Under coach Steffen Leitl, Hertha look to play with more intensity and put pressure on the opposition defence more frequently. They are not always flawless without the ball, but they make up for individual lapses with the quality of their attacking play. Against Greuther Fürth, who have failed to keep a clean sheet in any of their last seven matches, the hosts should find opportunities to create several threatening attacks.

Greuther Fürth: Points Don’t Come Easy
After six rounds, the visitors have six points: one win, three draws and two defeats. Their goal difference stands at 9:11. In recent matches, they drew with Magdeburg (1-1) and Bochum (1-1), lost to Heidenheim (0-1), but before that beat Energie Cottbus in a high-scoring game (4-3). Greuther Fürth are capable of maintaining a high tempo and responding to opposition attacks, but consistency has been lacking so far.
In Berlin, it will be difficult for the visitors to sit deep for long: Hertha regularly build pressure and are able to exploit space. Fürth will probably look for chances on the counter and try to take advantage of moments that arise from the hosts' turnovers. However, if they make several defensive errors again, they will find themselves chasing the game against a side that has already shown more than once that they can score three or more goals.

Latest news
Hertha BSC
❌ The squad situation warrants attention: forward Gustaf Nilsson is recovering from a hamstring injury and, according to the German press, is unlikely to be ready in time for the match. Defender Márton Dárdai is also dealing with a fitness issue. Deyovaisio Zeefuik has returned to full training, while Linus Gechter was expected to rejoin the squad after illness. The final selection will depend on how players come through their pre-match assessments.
Greuther Furth
❌ Benjamin Zank continues to recover from a meniscus injury, Maxim Dal is out with a shoulder injury, and Silas Prufrock misses the match with a shoulder bruise. The limited squad depth may affect the coaching staff's options to influence the game from the bench.
🟨 Yellow Cards Prediction
Hertha are likely to have more of the ball and keep their opponents working hard without it. Greuther Fürth will need to break up the hosts' play and get into challenges, especially if the Berliners take an early lead. The visitors are also capable of dangerous counter-attacks themselves, which could force the hosts into fouls during transitions. Our main selection here is Total Yellow Cards - Over 2.5.
⚽ Goals Prediction
Hertha have scored 17 goals in six rounds, while Greuther Fürth have conceded 11. The Berliners regularly create chances and look well placed to exploit their opponents' defensive problems. At the same time, the seven goals conceded by the hosts show their defence is far from watertight, and Fürth have already shown they can score more than once in a game. My pick, though, is Hertha Team Total - Over 1.5. The odds are 1.43*.
🚩 Corner Kick Prediction
Hertha's high attacking activity should help the hosts work possession into shots and crosses more frequently. If Greuther Fürth are forced to defend deep, the Berliners will be able to win additional corners through blocked shots and attempts to deliver the ball into the box. The visitors are capable of threatening on the counter, so the overall total could end up fairly high. My preferred selection, however, is Hertha to win the corner count at 1.49*.
*Odds are indicative and may vary between bookmakers.
⭐ Editorial Prediction
Hertha go into this match with a perfect record after six rounds and a clear advantage in attacking statistics. Greuther Fürth are capable of scoring, but their inconsistent defence is unlikely to cope with sustained pressure from the hosts throughout the match. The visitors' injury problems further strengthen the case for the Berliners. Our pick: Hertha to win. Predicted score - 3-1.
