The third weekend of the 2021-22 Bundesliga edition will see Bayern Munich host Hertha Berlin BSC at the Allianz Arena on Saturday night. The defending champions welcomed former RB Leipzig boss Julian Nagelsmann but started the season fairly slowly with a draw (1-1) away at Borussia Monchengladbach. While his win came last weekend, but his men had to put a real fight to grab three points against FC Koln. However, a late strike from Serge Gnabry ensured a hard-fought 3-2 win. However, the Bavarian giants have found form as they lifted the DFL-Supercup by hammering Bremer SV 12-0 in the final. It was their biggest victory in almost 25 years.
On the contrary, Hertha Berlin BSC will travel to Munich winless. The team lost to FC Koln (3-1) and Wolfsburg (2-1) in the first two game weeks of the new season. Pal Dardai and his men will need to find some points soon before pressure begins to mount. However, doing so this weekend will be a herculean task for the team, who are currently at the bottom of the league.
The Bundesliga 2021-22 match between Bayern Munich and Hertha Berlin BSC, will kick off at 10:00 PM IST.
