FC Koln ahead of the match
Cologne host this friendly on home turf under head coach René Wagner. Over their last 10 official matches the team has managed just 1 win against 4 losses and 5 draws, scoring 16 goals (1.6 per game, rising to 1.8 at home) while conceding at an average of 2.2 per match. It’s a mixed run of form heading into this test, with the defence in particular a point of concern.
Hertha BSC ahead of the match
Hertha Berlin arrive on the back of a 1:1 draw away to Mamelodi Sundowns on 21 July 2026 in the Club Friendly Games, a match in which possession was shared evenly (50:50) and Hertha edged the fouls count 9-3. Over their last 10 official games, Stefan Leitl’s side have picked up 4 wins, 4 losses and 2 draws, scoring 13 goals (1.3 per game, 1.67 away from home) while conceding 1.5 per match on average. It’s a more balanced recent record than their hosts, though defensive question marks remain here too.
FC Koln vs Hertha Berlin: preview and head-to-head
The two sides have met 34 times in total, with Cologne winning 12 and Hertha Berlin winning 17 of those encounters. In terms of goals, Cologne have scored 42 against Hertha, who have replied with 49, giving an average total of 2.68 goals per head-to-head meeting.
The most recent official clash came on 5 April 2025, finishing 0:1 in Hertha’s favour. In that match Cologne (playing at home) dominated possession (60% to 40%) and had the edge in corners (7-5) and shots on target were close (4-5 in Hertha’s favour), but it was Hertha who took the win, while picking up more yellow cards (4 to Cologne’s 1).
With this being a pre-season friendly and no odds supplied, there’s no clear favourite on the day — Hertha Berlin hold the historical edge in this fixture, but Cologne’s home advantage and Hertha’s longer travel schedule this summer make it a genuinely open contest.
