Hertha Trading at Shorter Odds Than FCM

With the bookies giving them a 57% probability of winning, Hertha BSC might be a popular acca pick. Their current betting odds are -133 when it comes to triumphing in this 2. Bundesliga clash. At +310, Magdeburg are regarded as having a lower probability of winning.
