On Sunday afternoon, Union Berlin and Dortmund meet at the Stadion An der Alten Forsterei in a massive clash at the top of the Bundesliga table.
Union Berlin
The team from the German capital have established themselves as surprise leaders at the top of the Bundesliga table. Union are two points clear of second place Freiburg as they look to continue their excellent start to the Bundesliga campaign.
A 1-0 win at Stuttgart last time out in the German top flight means that Urs Fischer’s team has won three of their previous four matches in the Bundesliga. The victory also saw Union keep a third clean sheet in four league games.
Union Berlin has been strong on home soil in the past year or so, as they have suffered just one home defeat in 15 games in the Bundesliga. However, that solitary home defeat was inflicted on them by Sunday’s opponents Dortmund.
Dortmund
BVB’s recent Bundesliga form has been inconsistent, as they head into this clash on the back of just one win in their previous four league games.
However, last time out in the Bundesliga, they came back from two goals down to rescue a 2-2 draw in Der Klassiker against arch-rivals Bayern Munich.
The game saw Dortmund concede at least two goals for the third time in four games in the German top flight.
The visitor's recent away record could not be more inconsistent, as BVB have won three and lost three of their previous six league games on their travels. That poor away run includes losing back-to-back away games at RB Leipzig and Koln.
