So, I shall be attending this game on Saturday as part of a weekend away in Berlin.

I'm looking forward to seeing the stadium, and experience the German atmosphere.

Anyone ever been to the Olympiastadion?

It's a fantastic stadium, you're in for a treat. Unfortunately it was during the summer when I was there, so I didn't get to see a game. But we just wandered around, you can still see the old Olympic Village in the grounds.

Incidently - what a time to be going to watch the Bundesliga!

The most exciting run in to a season in any european country. 5 points between the top 5

Would love to be going!

Quality stadium, and tickets are filthy cheap, think it was €14 when I was there, although that was a few years back. The Hertha fans create a great atmosphere and are a very friendly bunch, you should have a crackin' time! Keep the 'glass' you get your beer in, you can get a refund for it after the match (stops so much littering, you even get some lads wandering around picking up other peoples).

Essential purchase -

Pretty sure that Voronin is out of the match - he got a three match ban after a red card a week or two back and I think this will be the third match he misses because of the ban.

Hertha would be favourites

Hertha will win. My tip for champions months ago
Have a good time in the Olimpiastadion, I was there about two years ago for the Vfb-Nurnburg cup final. It's a great stadium.

best stadium i was ever in.


Berlin is superb but its really really big, can be a pain being locked at 3 in the morning and of the 3 trains to get home only 2 are running.

Nowhere is really central, strange you can actually see the 2 cities in one.

Cmon Bochum , altho i do like berlin after our meeting this season would like them to win the league assuming bochum safe.

Aye, Berlin is huge, but easy as feck to get around on the trains. Get your weekend travel ticket in the airport for hoppin' on/off the trains & buses.

Have to say, the Bundesliga have the coolest jerseys of all European leagues. Personal favourite, would be Werder Bremen, cool crest too.
