RB Leipzig vs Union Berlin Predictions

• Four of Leipzig’s last six home games in the Bundesliga have seen four or more goals
• Both teams have found the net in six of the last seven head-to-heads
• Union Berlin have failed to keep a clean sheet in the last 14 meetings between these two

Can Union pull away from trouble?

Union Berlin endured a nightmare start to the season and were camped in the relegation zone to begin the season. They have begun to pull away from trouble after two wins from their last four and now sit five points clear of the drop in 15th.

There can be no room for complacency however, only bottom team Darmstadt have lost more games than Union’s 11 and they could get dragged back into trouble.

They will be encouraged by the struggles of their opponents RB Leipzig in recent times, they have lost three on the spin and conceded nine times in the process.

The hosts are now three points behind Borussia Dortmund in fourth spot after their 5-2 defeat at the hands of Stuttgart and need a victory to run around their poor run.

Avoiding the win markets the way to go

With both teams struggling, Union this season and Leipzig recently, it may pay to avoid the win markets. Goals have been a given in Leipzig’s games this season, four of their last six home games in the Bundesliga have gone over 3.5 goals.

Both teams have scored in six of the last seven meetings between these two teams so they can both play their part in an intruiging clash. Side with four or more goals to be scored in this matchup in what should be an entertaining affair.

It’s hard to fancy either team for win purposes so take a 2-2 draw in this one.
