Just a few days after meeting in the DFB Pokal semi-finals, RB Leipzig and Union Berlin meet again in the Bundesliga at the Red Bull Arena on Saturday afternoon, as both teams look to secure points in the battle for European spots.
RB Leipzig recorded a 3-2 midweek win over Union in the DFB Pokal to book their place in the final of the competition. The victory continued a strong recent run of form for Die Roten Bullen, who have now won their last four games in all competitions.
When it comes to the Bundesliga, Domenico Tedesco’s team is unbeaten in nine matches, having recorded seven victories in the process.
In their last league outing, a 1-0 win at top-four rivals Bayer Leverkusen moved Leipzig up to third place in the table.
However, they can ill afford many slip-ups, as Freiburg are just three points adrift in fifth place in the fight for the Champions League spots.
Die Roten Bullen have been strong at the Red Bull Arena in the Bundesliga of late, as they are unbeaten in six home outings, recording four wins in the run.
Union Berlin are still in the race for the Champions League spots, as Urs Fischer’s team is outside the Champions League spot by five points.
The boys from Berlin are currently in sixth place in the Bundesliga standings, a point clear of seventh-place Koln. Their current position would see Union qualify for the Europa League for next season.
The visitors have certainly built up some good momentum of late in the Bundesliga, winning their last three matches in the German top-flight.
However, the team from the German capital have lost four of their previous five away games in the Bundesliga.
Forebet predicts that RB Leipzig will consolidate their position in the Bundesliga top four by recording a victory in a high-scoring encounter.
