RB Leipzig - Union Berlin predictions

RB Leipzig are likely on their way to a decisive victory, and it’s hard to feel optimistic about the visitors’ prospects. Bookmakers are pricing a home win at 1.44, which is quite in line with most expert opinions.

From the current viewpoint, the situation is unambiguous. Considering the strength of The Red Bulls and the 8.00 odds given to Union Berlin to win, it is easy to see that a win for the visiting team would be a remarkable upset.

Team from Leipzig’s performance in their previous away game left a lot to be desired. Some early concessions snowballed into a crushing 5:2 defeat at the hands of Stuttgart .

Although they don’t always make it look easy, Union Berlin tend to deliver results in the end. Their previous showdown against Darmstadt 98 saw them secure a narrow 1:0 home win after a rocky first half.

RB Leipzig have been struggling to keep the ball out of their net lately. For instance, their previous 3 Bundesliga matches were marked by more than 5 goals conceded in total.

We should point out that Union Berlin scored more than 5 goals over the course of their previous 3 home games. They’re visitors this time around, but it’s still worth noting for the benefit of bets like Over 5 Goals.

If they keep their current position, the hosts will be moving on to next year’s Europa League. Still, there’s plenty of room for improvement, especially with matchups such as the one on Sunday.

The two teams already met this season in the Bundesliga, with Team from Leipzig taking the victory. It’s understandable why most bookies consider them the favourites, though the advantage is not overwhelming.

With zero injuries reported across the board, this is shaping up to be an exciting outing indeed. Both teams will have their complete squads at their disposal, so we can fully expect them to bring their A-game.

Though some punters may prefer more exciting options, the Under 3.5 Goals market is a solid opportunity for this fixture. It offers a surprisingly solid balance between risk and betting value – though the returns on their own aren’t much to look at.
