Hertha Berlin vs Union Berlin will kick off matchday 27 in the Bundesliga. Live Soccer TV previews the latest installment of the Berlin derby, as well as provides where to watch all the other games on MD 27.

After a two month interruption following the spread of COVID-19 to Germany, the Bundesliga finally returned to action last weekend, making it the first major European league to resume play. And it certainly did not disappoint. Although fans were not able to return to the stadiums due to new measures being implemented, there were plenty of goals all over Germany as all 18 teams were back on the pitch. With that in mind, the upcoming matchday should be just as exciting as there is a historic derby in store, as well as a clash that could see a change in the battle for Champions League berths.

Match of the weekend: Hertha Berlin vs Union Berlin

This game may not be featuring the biggest clubs in the Bundesliga, but it is a significant one due to the historical and political ties between the two clubs. For starters, Union Berlin was once located in the former East Berlin, which was under communist rule after World War II up until the fall of the Berlin wall, while Hertha Berlin was located in West Berlin, which remained under democratic governance.

Politics aside, this derby has actually only been played five times prior to Friday's meeting. There have been other meetings, but not competitively. Moreover, Friday's clash will represent only the second time this game has been played in the Bundesliga; all other matches were in the 2.Bundesliga. Unfortunately for fans, due to COVID-19, the second installment of the Berlin derby in the top flight will be played behind closed doors.

The first meeting in the Bundesliga was won 1-0 by Union Berlin, and it goes without saying that despite the presence of fans, it will be still a intense match as Hertha play hosts to Union and seek to avoid losing on home turf.

To date, the five derby meetings in both the 2. Bundesliga and the Bundesliga have resulted in one win for Hertha Berlin, two wins for Union Berlin, and two draws.

Talking points ahead of matchday 27

Will we see a shake up in the top four?

Both Gladbach (3rd) and Leverkusen (5th) have had solid campaigns thus far, with Gladbach in particular being very impressive. The two sides will be locking horns on Saturday in a match that could see things shaken up in the race for a top four place, and subsequently, a Champions League berth.Both teams come into this game on a two game winning streak, but it's Leverkusen who have the slightly better form, as they are unbeaten in their last five fixtures, while Gladbach's run is slightly marred by a defeat suffered on matchday 24 to title contenders Borussia Dortmund in March.

This will certainly be a fixture not to miss!
