Union Berlin to leapfrog Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga table

Union Berlin vs Hoffenheim - 17/12/2019

Union Berlin to leapfrog Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga table
3510

It has been a mixed campaign for Union Berlin in their debut campaign in the Bundesliga. The team from the capital struggled for form in the early weeks of the campaign. However, Urs Fischer’s team have found decent form of late heading into Tuesday night’s home game with Hoffenheim.

Union have won four of their last six Bundesliga matches to move into the top half of German top-flight table. In fact. a victory over Hoffenheim would see the home side leapfrog their ninth-place opponents in the table.

Their progress was stalled slightly by a 1-1 draw with fellow newly-promoted outfit Paderborn last time out. The match was the third game of Union’s last four league matches to produce under 2.5 goals.

Union Berlin’s recent home form has played a crucial role in their recent improvement in results, as they have now won their previous four league games on home soil.

Solid defensive displays have also played a major part in Union’s recent good run of results, as they have kept clean sheets in their last four home matches in the Bundesliga. At the other end of the pitch, the home side has also scored at least twice in three of those aforementioned home wins.

Hoffenheim heads into this clash on the back of four Bundesliga games without a victory, including suffering three defeats. Alfred Schreuder’s team have suffered some disappointing defeats of late, suffering a 4-2 home loss against Augsburg last time out in the German top-flight.

The visitor’s recent defensive displays have been a major factor in their poor form, as they have failed to keep a clean in five league games while conceding 13 goals in their last four league matches.

Forebet predicts that Union Berlin will continue their solid run of form in the Bundesliga by recording a victory in a low-scoring encounter.
