Borussia Dortmund are having a challenging term so far. In 22 outings, they only have 8 wins, 5 draws, and 9 defeats. Their haul of 29 points is only good enough for 11th on the Bundesliga table. A far cry from the top-four contention expected of them at the beginning of the season. They are currently 8 points out of the top four.
They’ve struggled for consistency, having won just once in their last eight home games. Last time out, they were shocked by VfL Bochum, who ran out impressive 2-0 winners at home to Dortmund, highlighting the defensive vulnerabilities of Niko Kovač’s side.
Despite their struggles, Kovač and his charges have shown glimpses of their potential with key players. Sehrou Guirassy and Jamie Bynoe-Gittens contribute significantly to attacking play.

Bet hereOn current form, 22Bet football predictions analysis reveals that Dortmund have the edge.
Despite their struggles, they have a strong squad and home advantage over Union Berlin. The visitors’ offensive struggles will make it difficult for them to punish Borussia’s defensive frailties.
Therefore, Dortmund are the football pick to return to winning ways on Saturday with their second victory in their previous nine home matches.
Borussia Dortmund have been involved in high-scoring events this season and have averaged 1.7 goals per game. Their defensive vulnerabilities also make it likely that Union Berlin will have some joy in attack. Therefore, our expert soccer predictions back a home win with a decent number of nets, but the football pick is less than 3.5 goals this weekend.
