Köln - Union Berlin predictions

Though Köln are the favourites between these two teams, this is a fairly balanced matchup. All three possible outcomes of a Result bet are quite possible, which at least means we may get to see an exciting game.

The visiting team is fully aware of the challenge that lies ahead. A win against Köln on their home field would be a significant achievement, and it is never an easy task.

The Billy Goats were hoping they would be able to pull a surprise in their last Bundesliga game. That was the impression after the first half at least when The Billy Goats had it all level on a difficult outing. However, they were unable to fight the pressure off and ended up suffering a proper beating in the second half for a convincing Bayer Leverkusen away defeat.

Union Berlin’s latest Bundesliga performance against RB Leipzig was an astonishing upturn. After an inconclusive first half, they recorded a comprehensive 3:1 victory in front of their home fans. As a reminded, RB Leipzig are generally seen as the considerably stronger team.

The Billy Goats’s fans are rather disappointed with what they’ve seen from their defence in recent home games. The previous three matches saw them concede 6 times, which is not a great look.

Union Berlin may need to work on their defence if they want to get anywhere. In the 3 most recent matches they played, they conceded more than 5 times in total, which is not a good record to have.

This will no doubt be an exciting match because both squads will be able to come out in full force. No players have been sidelined due to injury or suspension, and this goes for both sides.

Based on both teams’ previous performances, an Over 2.5 Goals bet is very likely to win. The returns are somewhat limited at the odds of 2, but it’s still an incredibly safe bet.
