RB Leipzig vs Union Berlin Free Betting Picks – Bundesliga

As for several years now, Leipzig touches the upper echelons of German football and is the main outsider, with Borussia Dortmund, as German champion behind Bayern. This season again, RB Leipzig can be ambitious by occupying 3rd place in the standings but it is losing ground on Bayern who now have a 4-point lead. Blame it on the latest rather disappointing results. After beating Stuttgart (0-1), Jurgen Nagelsmann’s men were defeated by Dortmund (1-3) before having to share away points with Wolfsburg (2-2) on Saturday.

Opposite, Union Berlin is undoubtedly the current very good surprise across the Rhine. Indeed, for their 2nd season only in the Bundesliga, the iron men are in 6th place in the standings with a small point behind the top 4 qualifyings for the Champions League. Fearsome, the Berliners have lost only one of their last 15 games. Victorious over Dortmund (2-1) and Bremen (0-2), they had to share the points with Wolfsburg (2-2) before dropping Bayer Leverkusen (1-0) on Friday night at the very end of the game.

The workforce for RB Leipzig vs Union Berlin

In Leipzig, potential incumbents Konaté and Henrichs are still sidelined at the moment, but executive Laimer and Hungarian rookie Szoboszlai could play their first minutes for the club this season in the league.

For the Union, the top scorer Kruse (6 goals and 5 assists), as well as the usual holder Pohjanpalo and the unused this season Ujah, will not be on the trip. The return of midfielder Gentner is hoped for but it is uncertain with the replacement defender Hübner and the interesting striker Becker (3 goals). From an offensive point of view, the important Awoniyi (5 goals) and Andrich (4 goals) could be aligned from the start.
