Game Preview
Union Berlin has gotten off to a fantastic start to the new season, and before the international break they’ll be trying to extend their unbeaten league streak to three games. The capital will play host to RB Leipzig.
Union Berlin’s ability to sustain the excellent standards they achieved previous term was a minor source of concern leading up to the start of the new season. The first few weeks of the season have put those concerns to rest, as Union enters Matchday 3 as the leaders in the Bundesliga.
Union has dominated their first two games, winning both by a combined score of 8-2. They have scored 12 goals in three games this season, while only allowing 2 goals against. Their most recent success was last weekend, when they easily beat Darmstadt away from home. Union was reduced to ten men after Brenden Aaronson’s red card at the 21-minute mark, and Robin Gosens scored twice in the 4-1 victory.
RB Leipzig‘s season in the Bundesliga did not get off to a good start when they lost their opening game. However, they shrugged off that loss and started the new campaign off on the right foot last weekend. Leipzig dominated the game and easily defeated Stuttgart, 5-1.
In the victorious match, a total of five distinct goal scorers successfully propelled the ball into the net, among them were Xavi Simons and Lois Openda, who were recently enlisted by the team. The performance exhibited was highly commanding; nonetheless, the probability of a comparable occurrence versus Union is quite low.
Union Berlin possesses an impressive track record in this particular encounter, having emerged victorious in their last five matches versus Leipzig. This entails a sequence of three consecutive victories in matches held at the team’s home venue, with each win being achieved by a scoreline of 2-1.
