After a Paulinho-inspired win over the Wolves, the Company’s Eleven are back in the Bundesliga for this clash against the Old Lady. Bayer 04 Leverkusen vs. Hertha BSC, kicks off at 14:30 (GMT+1) on Saturday, April 2, at BayArena.
Hertha BSC picked up three points on Bundesliga Matchday 27, following a 3-0 win over TSG Hoffenheim. The victory saw the club return to winning ways after four straight defeats, LLLLW. With the win, Hertha moved one spot ahead on the Bundesliga table, from 17th to 16th place, having 26 points from 7W, 5D, & 15L. This will be the first game in charge for Felix Magath, who was appointed on the 14th of March, a day after Tayfun Korkut was shown the exit.
