Union Berlin vs Bayer Leverkusen Prediction & Betting tips
After the much-discussed 4-3 win at Borussia Dortmund, Bayer Leverkusen faces FC Union Berlin on Saturday in the Bundesliga. The PhD student knows how to make it difficult for many opponents this season.
FC Union Berlin:
FC Union Berlin continues to impress at the highest level. The club that last year ranked number three in the 2. Bundesliga through the playoffs, still outperforms the new teams in the Bundesliga. Werder Bremen was beaten 0-2 last weekend. The home team was allowed by Union, but it was the Berliners who controlled the game in the switch. Marius Bülter was the great man at Union; he signed for both goals.
Union is well on its way to securing enforcement at an early stage. After 21 matches, Die Eisernen are at 26 points, which puts them nine points above the relegation line. So last week, an away game was won, but this does not happen that often. Union takes the most points in its own stadium. Five of their last six home duels were converted to a win. And with none of those victories did the Berliners have to allow a counter goal.
Bayer Leverkusen:
Bayer Leverkusen delivered a great match last week. The top match against Borussia Dortmund offered entertainment from start to finish, mainly because both teams chose the attack in large parts of the match. The game seemed to go wrong for Peter Bosz’s team, but two late hits made for a surprising turn. Dortmund was eventually defeated with 4-3. Leverkusen approached number four Borussia Mönchengladbach to two points.
Leon Bailey was successful with a scored goal last week. He is a candidate for the basic team for Saturday, which could be at the expense of Moussa Diaby. Bosz can again appeal to midfielder Kerem Demirbay, who had to sit out a short suspension last week. After his strong competition last week, a new base for Daley Sinkgraven is obvious. The Europa League home game against FC Porto is scheduled for Thursday.
