UNION BERLIN
Fourth-placed Union Berlin are determined to qualify for the Champions League. Nevertheless, maintaining their position or climbing higher is not going to be an easy task. The 2-0 loss to Augsburg ended Union’s 5-match unbeaten run. They need to return to winning ways as there is a chasing pack of six teams that are only 1 to 4 points behind in the title race.
Union Berlin needs its forward-line firing again if they are to get the result in this game. They had scored at least 2 goals in each of their previous last 5 games before returning blanks in their last match. However, they have also conceded goals in those games so the defensive area is something manager Urs Fischer should seek to improve.
BORUSSIA DORTMUND
It was an embarrassing 5-2 defeat at home for Borussia Dortmund at the hands of Bayer Leverkusen last time out. They will be out in full force seeking to bounce back and stay on course as they try to chase down runaway league leaders Bayern Munich who now enjoy a 9-point cushion at the top of the table. Nevertheless, their next opponents are no pushover, and Dortmund have to prepare for a serious match.
Only Bayern have scored more goals than Dortmund’s 54 in this season’s Bundesliga. Their attacking play is a joy to watch for the fans and neutrals, but the defense is not so impressive. Dortmund have conceded 15 goals in their last 6 matches, something that should be worrying coach Marco Rose as it will cost them many points in the campaign.
