Union Berlin vs Dortmund Prediction & Betting tips
Borussia Dortmund comes into action early on Saturday evening. The title candidate knows that no points may be lost in the away match against Union Berlin.
1. FC Union Berlin:
FC Union Berlin grabbed its first point at the highest German football level last week. After the hopeless 0-4 defeat of RB Leipzig two weeks ago, things went better last week. When visiting FC Augsburg, Union met an opponent against whom they had a better chance. In a match that was qualitatively fast to forget, Sebastian Andersson made a point for Die Eisernen. In the final phase Keven Schlotterbeck received the red card, so he will not be active on Saturday.
“We have to move on to Dortmund, where we stopped in Augsburg,” coach Urs Fischer decided this week. The coach will certainly want to do better with his team than in the home match against RB Leipzig, when the power difference in large phases of the match was huge. An extra defensive adaptation to the attack power of the visitors would not be strange on Saturday either.
Borussia Dortmund:
Borussia Dortmund didn’t make it easy for itself last week, in the away game against 1. FC Köln. The 1-3 win that was celebrated only came about in the final stages, but was considered deserved throughout the entire race. The victory brought the Dortmunders to six out of two, after the 5-1 win over FC Augsburg, which was booked a week earlier.
Everyone who has a warm heart for Der BVB watched the draw for the group stage of the Champions League with above-average interest on Thursday evening. Dortmund was not one of the lucky ones in that draw. The yellow blacks meet two major opponents with FC Barcelona and Internazionale. But in turn Barcelona and Inter will of course not be happy with Dortmund as an opponent. The adventure for Der BVB starts in mid-September with the prestigious home game against Barcelona, in a group in which Slavia Prague will probably act as an extra.
