Bayer Leverkusen returns to action this weekend after the long Bundesliga winter break. Mexican star forward Javier ‘Chicharito’ Hernandez will have a difficult opponent in Hertha BSC in a game in which Leverkusen will attempt to earn a much needed win and 3 points. The Week 17 match will be played this Sunday, January 22, 2017 (6:30 AM Pacific) at the BayArena.
Almost reaching the half-way point of the season, the team coached by Roger Schmidt has had an extremely disappointing campaign as after sixteen games his team sits in 10th place with only 21 points. In other words, Leverkusen is 10 pointsaway from the 3rd placed team which would give them a direct seed to next year’s Champions League.
Chicharito has himself been a representation of his team’s poor run as the Mexican has not scored an official goal since October. He performed well during the quick winter break after scoring a goal in the Florida Cup, yet it will be interesting to note how he performs against Hertha.
