Game Preview
Union Berlin and Freiburg are tied for fifth place in the Bundesliga with 56 points going into Saturday’s game at Stadion An der Alten Försterei. With 16 victories apiece, eight draws, and seven losses, gaining three points in the battle for a Champions League berth would be a major boost for either team.
Although Union Berlin’s hopes of winning the league have been dashed, the underdogs still have a shot at finishing in the top four and qualifying for the Champions League for the first time in their history. It will be tough for Urs Fischer’s Union to stay up with the likes of Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund, but the team can still end the season on a positive note. Union was promoted to the Bundesliga in 2020.
The Irons Ones are currently fourth in the Bundesliga, only one point behind third-placed RB Leipzig with three games remaining, and eighth in the league when compared to sixth-placed Bayer Leverkusen. Fischer’s men will be confident in responding to last weekend’s 1-0 setback at Augsburg, despite Union’s recent inconsistency.
Union has the best defensive record in the Bundesliga this season thanks in large part to the fact that they have yet to be defeated at home and have allowed only nine goals at Stadion An der Alten Försterei. However, Freiburg has been quite successful away from home as of late, with a three-win, two-draw run that includes triumphs against Werder Bremen and FC Koln in the span of a month.

The Breisgau-Brasilianer will look to improve on their previous European qualification, when they finished third in their Europa League group in 2013–14.
