Bayer Leverkusen vs Union Berlin Preview and Team News

Bayer Leverkusen Team News

Xabi Alonso’s men remain on the hunt to successfully defend their Bundesliga crown. However, every fixture between now and the end of the season is a must-win affair if they’re to catch Bayern Munich, who sit six points clear at the summit. 

Leverkusen’s confidence will be high after winning their last three Bundesliga matches.

The home squad have excelled in the final third once again after scoring 47 goals from an open play xG of 40.88. However, they’ll need to be more challenging to break down if they are to retain their top-flight title after allowing 25 goals from an xGA of 23.20.

Florian Wirtz is a doubt for the hosts this weekend. Martin Terrier, Jeanuel Belocian, and Odilon Kossounou are all ruled out due to respective injuries.

Union Berlin Team News

It’s been a challenging Bundesliga season for the visitors, but their top-flight status looks assured at this stage. They’ve gone four without defeat in the league and have registered wins in each of their last two to open up an eleven-point gap over the relegation places.

Converting chances has been a major issue for Union Berlin since the start of the season. They’ve scored just 18 goals from an xG of 24.22. They also endured a poor defensive record after conceding 35 balls from an xGA of 34.77.

However, they have a near fully-fit squad available for Saturday’s showdown. Robert Skov could feature after returning to training. Only Aljoscha Kemlein remains out until the start of June.

Bayer Leverkusen vs Union Berlin Prediction

  • Pick: Bayer Leverkusen
  • Odds: 1.32 (22Bet)
  • Score prediction: Bayer Leverkusen 2-0 Union Berlin

The guests have been more resolute defensively in recent weeks. They still appear short of quality in the final third, which would be a major issue ahead of this weekend. 

It’s worth noting the head-to-head record before making a Bayer Leverkusen vs Union Berlin prediction. The hosts have won each of their previous three against their opponents. 

Furthermore, Bayer have kept clean sheets in four of the last five head-to-head meetings between the sides. 

Bayer Leverkusen vs Union Berlin Prediction, Betting Tip

  • Pick: Under 2.5 Goals
  • Odds: 2.18 (22Bet)

There could be value in siding with under 2.5 goals being scored this weekend. Union Berlin have averaged 2.36 goals per matchday and kept clean sheets in 21% of their games. 

Meanwhile, Leverkusen have been professional in home events, normalising around 2.29 goals per 90. The head-to-head trends also indicate that under 2.5 goals have been scored in two of the previous four encounters. 

Both clubs not scoring could be an excellent alternative. Union Berlin have failed to score in 50% of their away games so far. Bayer kept clean sheets in 25% of their Bundesliga meetings.
