Union Berlin:
The captains are currently very successful in the 2nd German football league on the road.

With a record of five wins and nine draws they have so far recorded 24 points on their credit side. This puts them in third place on the table due to the better goal difference against FC St. Pauli. The gap to the promotion favorites from Cologne and HSV is three and four points, respectively. Last Monday, the top match took place in Hamburg. After a strong first half Berlin led the break tea with 1: 0. After the break, however, the Hamburg were getting stronger and turned the game by two goals within seven minutes. The lead held until the 90th minute before Abdullahi could achieve the much acclaimed equalizer for the Iron.
With ten goals conceded Union represents by far the best defensive of the league. In the last four games at the Alte Försterei Keeper Gikiewicz could only be overcome once. The best goal scorers in rows of the team of coach Urs Fischer are the Swedes Sebastian Andersson and Sebastian Polter, both could einnetzen four times. The only competitive defeat conceded the Iron in the DFB Cup. Only after a hard fight they were defeated at Borussia Dortmund with 2: 3. Marco Reus scored the winning goal for the black and yellow in the first minute of injury extra time.
Despite the 3-0 defeat against 1. FC Köln last Saturday, coach Dirk Schuster was not dissatisfied with his team. For one hour, they have held up well against the promotion favorites and have faced great problems. Only a double by Czichos and Cordoba decided the game ultimately for the Rhinelander.
It was the second defeat in a row for the lilies, who had previously lost 1-0 at VfL Bochum. In the table, they have fallen to rank twelve. With 17 points they are now seven points behind the relegation place, so that the topic of promotion is currently not likely to be current. The cushion on the descent is also quite comfortable. Seven points is the lead over the SV Sandhausen in 16th place. The lilies managed in the last ten games only twice to get a threesome. The games at home Böllenfalltor against Magdeburg (3: 1) and Greuther Fürth (2: 0) were won respectively. In the distance they have been waiting for a long time for a sense of achievement. From the last four games in the opposing stadium, they could only get a single point. They are currently the second-worst away team in the league.
