Match Preview:
Generally speaking, Union Berlin are enjoying a very solid campaign under the stewardship of Steffen Baumgart, though there is no denying that recent weeks have been tough for Die Eisernen. League defeats to Heidenheim and Wolfsburg have seen Union slip down the standings, while their defeat to Bayern Munich saw them knocked out of the DFB-Pokal.

Union’s recent home form is another concern, with the team winless in their last three Bundesliga matches on home turf – losing five league points due to goals conceded in stoppage time.

On the plus side, Union tend to perform well against top teams, and they are currently the only team in the Bundesliga who have not lost a league game against Bayern Munich this season.

Currently placed second in the Bundesliga table, RB Leipzig hold the rank of being ‘the best of the rest’ – something they would love to change in the second half of the season. With nine victories and two draws to their name from 13 league matches, Die Roten Bullen have hardly put a foot wrong, yet they still find themselves eight points adrift of Bayern Munich.

It seems only perfection will do when trying to chase the Bavarians for the league crown, though things may change as the season powers into 2026. While Bayern are trying to maintain success on both the domestic and European fronts, Leipzig are not burdened with the same distractions and can dedicate all their manpower to their Bundesliga efforts.

Match Prediction: Union Berlin 1-2 RB Leipzig
RB Leipzig might be missing a number of players through injuries, but as their 6-0 demolition of Frankfurt proved, they still have enough quality to get the job done. Union Berlin, on the other hand, are in the midst of some poor form, meaning we have no other choice but to back the visitors.
