I'm backing Hertha to win this 2-1 at home on 24 October 2026 at 14:00. Hertha's last-10 form at the Olympiastadion is exceptional: seven wins, three draws, zero losses, averaging 2.39 goals for and 1.20 against. That's a fortress. Bielefeld arrive as the away side in terrible shape, with three wins, four draws, and three losses in their last ten, scoring just 1.70 per game. I see a Hertha victory as the most likely outcome here, and the 2-1 scoreline fits their attacking output and Bielefeld's defensive fragility.
Form and H2H
I've looked at the head-to-head record and it's mixed, but the recent trend favours Hertha. They won 2-0 at home in December 2021 and drew 1-1 most recently in May 2025. The outlier is Bielefeld's 6-1 demolition in May 2026, but I don't read too much into a single freak result. What matters to me is Hertha's consistency at home this season: they haven't lost in ten matches. Bielefeld's away record is pedestrian by comparison, and I expect Hertha to control this match from start to finish.
Best bet
I'm taking Hertha to win at 1.87 on 1xBet. The price is fair given their home form, and I'd take it again at that level. I also like Both Teams to Score at 1.44, because Bielefeld will get chances on the break and Hertha won't keep a clean sheet. I'm confident in the 2-1 prediction, which covers both bets neatly.
Odds to watch
I'll monitor Over 2.5 Goals at 1.44 and Under 2.5 at 2.6 on 1xBet. My 2-1 call sits right on that line, so I prefer the Both Teams to Score bet at 1.44 as a proxy for an open match. If I wanted to be more conservative, I'd look at Over 1.5 Goals, which should land easily given Hertha's attacking output. The home win at 1.87 remains my primary play.
