Bundesliga Preview

It could be a very famous weekend in the history of Union Berlin this weekend, as they could secure the three points that they require to all-but seal a place in next season’s Champions League. Union currently holds a three-point advantage over Freiburg, but they have the added advantage of having a superior goal difference. Union’s recent form has been inconsistent, as they have won just twice in their previous five matches. 

However, they have remained hard to beat over that period, as they have suffered just a single defeat. A victory this weekend could also see them move up to third in the standings, depending on other results. Union recorded a huge victory in their previous match, as they landed a 4-2 success over Freiburg. Sheraldo Becker scored twice in that success.

Hoffenheim are still fighting for vital points at this stage of the season, as their safety in the top flight is far from assured. They currently sit 14th in the standings, but they are just two points above the relegation playoff spot, and three clear of the automatic drop zone. They also come into this match after losing three of their last four. 

Hoffenheim were beaten in their previous match, as they suffered a 2-1 defeat on the road against Wolfsburg. The visitors offered very little throughout that fixture, as they managed just two shots on target, despite dominating the possession throughout the match. 

Hoffenheim vs Union Berlin Head to Head

Union has an excellent record in this fixture, as they have won three of the previous five clashes, and they have remained unbeaten across the other two meetings over that period. Hoffenheim’s most recent win in this fixture came in June 2020.

Union Berlin are nearly there in terms of Champions League qualification, and we can see them avoiding a nervy final day of the season by claiming maximum points on the road this weekend.
