How To Read And Understand The Odds

3y ago

Clearly the most formidable football team in Europe at the moment, Bayern Munich have wasted no time in claiming their rightful position at the summit of the Bundesliga. However, they have RB Leipzig and Leverkusen blowing hot on their tails.

The Red Bulls are pulling in their weight to challenge Bayern for the league title this season, and things are looking good for them. With Der FCB just a point clear of the chasing pack, they need a victory over Union Berlin to remain top of the charts.

Union Berlin vs Bayern Munich Team News

Having just earned promotion to the German top-flight in 2019, Union Berlin have already quickly adjusted to the weekly hassles of the division. On their return to the Bundesliga, they delivered wonderful performances to command a comfortable league finish.

With a decent return of 41 points from 34 games, Die Eisernen finished eleventh on the log, a whopping ten points clear of the drop-zone. Now, another season is well and truly underway, and Berlin will be looking to play out another satisfactory campaign.

They are already off to a magnificent start, picking up 16 points from their opening ten games to occupy sixth-place. These ones have the quality to secure continental qualification come season-end but will need to keep performance levels up.

Against a mediocre Hertha Berlin side last time out, the Iron Ones fell to a disappointing 3-1 defeat. After Taiwo Awoniyi had given them the lead early on, a second-half capitulation saw Fischer’s men concede three goals to relinquish all three points.

In such a crucial game as the Berlin derby, Die Eisernen would have been gutted to lose out to their cross-town rivals. Now, their supporters, who handed bragging rights to the opposition fans, will have to endure maddening bants till the two sides meet again.

Putting those woes behind them, Union Berlin will be heading into this weekend’s fixture with every chance of coming away with a result. Though Bayern Munich are leading the way in the Bundesliga, they haven’t quite been as ruthless as they were last season.

They have already dropped eight points from their opening ten matches, a record which is pretty poor by their standards. They were held to a thrilling 3-3 draw by high-flying RB Leipzig last weekend. Itching to get on the pitch again, the Bavarians will be keen on returning to winning ways here.

Injured or Suspended Players

Union Berlin: Anthony Ujah, Joel Pohjanpalo, Christian Gentner, Andrich and Max Kruse.

Bayern Munich: Joshua Kimmich and Javi Martinez.

Union Berlin vs Bayern Munich Predictions

Losing key players like Andrich and Kruse through injuries, Urs Fischer will be facing some selection dilemma ahead of this game. Even though the Bavarians aren’t playing at their best level at the moment, we can see them nicking a win.

Bayern’s explosive frontline of Muller, Lewandowski and Muller should keep Die Eisernen’s defense busy all through the ninety minutes. We are backing the visitors to bag all three points, without conceding a single goal.
