The action in the Bundesliga resumes on Friday, as Stuttgart will be looking to move within a point of second-place Bayern Munich. Meanwhile, Union Berlin are still chasing vital points in their battle to avoid the drop.
Bundesliga Preview
It has been an excellent season to this point for Stuttgart, and they will continue their search for a Champions League finish when they host Union Berlin on Friday. The German side come into this round in excellent recent form after picking up victories in four of their last five matches. In fact, a win this weekend could see them end the round within a point of Bayern Munich.
Stuttgart’s excellent run of form was maintained last weekend after picking up a hard-fought 3-2 win on the road against Wolfsburg. It was a professional display by the visiting side on that occasion, as they scored with all three shots on target that they managed. Serhou Guirassy was the standout performer for Stuttgart on that occasion after netting an excellent hat-trick.
Bet hereIt has been a challenging campaign for Union Berlin this term, as they continue to battle at the wrong end of the standings. The German side are located just eight points above the bottom three places, and they come into this round after winning just twice across their last five.
However, they have been challenging to beat in recent weeks in the Bundesliga after suffering just one defeat in their last five. But, they do come into this round after suffering a defeat in their previous fixture after being edged out by Borussia Dortmund last weekend. Union failed to lay a glove on Dortmund in that fixture, and things don’t get that much easier for them this weekend.
Stuttgart vs Union Berlin Head to Head
Stuttgart landed a 3-0 win in the reverse clash between these sides in October. That win ended a six-game winless sequence against their rivals in the top-flight. Union come into this match after winning three of their last against Stuttgart, which includes a victory in this exact fixture last term.
Stuttgart vs Union Berlin Prediction
Union’s record in this fixture is interesting to consider this weekend. However, Stuttgart boasts the better form, and that could put them in a strong position to claim maximum points on Friday in the Bundesliga.
