Bundesliga Preview

It has been a reliable start to the season for Borussia Dortmund, as they look to go one better than their near miss in the race for the title last term. Dortmund have won four of their opening six matches this term, and they could move to the top of the standings this weekend if they are able to pick up maximum points in front of their home fans against Union Berlin. 

The German giants will be full of confidence ahead of this fixture, as they have won each of their last three matches in the Bundesliga. Dortmund were in strong form last weekend, as they battled to maximum points on the road against Hoffenheim. Niclas Fulkrug opened the scoring after 18 minutes, before Marco Reus re-established the lead on the stroke of half time. The final effort was added by Julian Ryerson in the 95th minute.

The alarm bells will be sounding at Union Berlin, as they have quickly dropped down in the Bundesliga standings despite making a reliable start to the campaign. They come into this fixture sitting eleventh overall, and they have lost each of their last four following back-to-back wins to start the season. 

Union dropped to a shock defeat on the road in their most recent match, as they were edged out by Heidenheim. That was a shock result, but Union may have believed that they had done enough to win the match after attempting 20 shots. However, the ball just isn’t dropping in the net for them at present, and that would be a huge concern. 

Borussia Dortmund vs Union Berlin Head to Head

Dortmund have a fine record in this fixture, as they have won four of their last five against Union. Berlin’s only victory in this fixture was secured with a home victory in October 2022, but they lost the later return fixture in April by a 2-1 scoreline. Dortmund have won each of their four Bundesliga home matches against Union. 

Borussia Dortmund vs Union Berlin Prediction

Union’s recent issues in front of goal make this a daunting challenge for the visitors. Dortmund have been reliable in recent weeks, and we expect them to claim maximum points in front of their home fans this weekend.
