The upcoming 20th Round of the German Bundesliga offers us a relegation battle par excellence. League tail light Hertha BSC challenges VfL Bochum to an encouraging duel at the Olympia-Stadium.
The new year 2010 seems to give the acute relegation-threatened Hertha BSC the last desirable chance. Currently seven points make the distance to a non-relegation-position. It's not that consistently viable pursuit race, which nourishes hope in the setting of Hertha. Rather the shown performances in both games after winter break keeps the Berliner in upbeat mood prior to the match against Bochum.
Like in the capital Bochum rays out a lot of confidence due to the current series. In the last seven games the "Revierclub" gained not less than twelve points, and lost only against Bayern Munich (1:5). Especially in the away games the VfL seems particularly at ease. The last defeat was on All Saint's Day against Eintracht Frankfurt (1:2). Since then, the Westphalians are undefeated with a marvelous record of three wins and a draw.
