Union Berlin - Bayer Leverkusen predictions

The most probable outcome of this match is Union Berlin getting completely overwhelmed. They are underdogs by a considerable margin, and it’s not likely even the most optimistic of their fans are expecting them to pull off a victory.

We are likely going to see Bayer Leverkusen triumph this Saturday, though Union Berlin do have a fighting chance. Maybe the home field advantage will be enough to spur them into a surprise draw or victory, though it’s not a probable outcome.

Union Berlin’s latest away game at Eintracht Frankfurt was an inconclusive stalemate which persisted throughout the runtime. Considering they were visitors playing against a much stronger team, however, the 0:0 result isn’t too bad for Union Berlin.

While Bayer Leverkusen managed to get a 2:1 victory in their previous home game against Hoffenheim, it only came after a disappointing first half. This raises some questions about their current form, especially considering the fact the top online bookmakers considered them a safe bet going in.

Union Berlin’s latest visiting performances were rather uneventful. All 5 of them ended with two goals or fewer in total, and the odds are this match is going to end similarly despite being a home game.

We’ve seen some impressive offensive performances from Bayer Leverkusen in the past few weeks. Their latest 3 league outings were marked by more than 5 goals scored, which means this match is likely to confirm markets like BTTS and Over 5 Goals.

The most recent record of this matchup we have is a decisive Leverkusen victory from the previous Bundesliga season. Based partly on the considerable lead they secured before the end of that bout, this game’s away team are expected to win again.

The hosts weren’t considered likely to win either way, but they are in a slightly worse position now. Jérôme Roussillon, Jakob Busk, Janik Haberer have all been injured recently, leaving the team’s coach with a narrower range of options.

An Over 2.5 Goals is a great bet if you like staying on the safe side. The betting value for this market is strong compared even to the 1.84, which makes this an easy betting prediction to make.
