The Berlin Olympic Stadium will be sold out for the city derby between Hertha BSC and Union Berlin.
It was the first time since January 2020 that Hertha’s stadium was full again with 74,667 fans, the club announced on Friday at a press conference before the game on Saturday (6.30 p.m. / here in the BZ live ticker and on Sky).
Since full capacity is being reached again for the first time after two years of the pandemic, the club asked the spectators to come to the stadium early. From 4 p.m. they will be allowed into the arena.

Those who arrive after 5.30 p.m. cannot be guaranteed to be in the stadium on time for kick-off, they said.
