Both Teams to Score
Genuine Bundesliga title races have been rare occurrences over the past decade, however, Bayern Munich and Union Berlin are two of three teams currently locked on 43 points each in the country’s top tier, and a competitive tussle is anticipated when the rivals of silverware meet on Sunday. Both teams have rattled the net in four of the last five meetings between the clubs, including the 1-1 draw they played out in Berlin in September this term. Our first Bayern Munich vs Union Berlin prediction tips that pattern to continue.
Over 2.5 Goals
Sunday’s game feels like a crucial juncture in this season’s Bundesliga title chase, and we expect both Bayern Munich and Union Berlin to push for victory at the Allianz Arena in a bid to strike a potentially pivotal blow in the battle for top spot. The last three encounters between the Bavarians and The Iron Ones featured a whopping 13 goals and excitement levels could be sky-high again in what promises to be a fascinating skirmish between the teams in Munich. With that in mind, a stake on over 2.5 goals is recommended at the prices on offer.

Bayern Munich vs Union Berlin Team News & Injuries
Read all of the latest injury updates, Bayern Munich vs Union Berlin lineups and team news for Sunday’s Bundesliga match-up below.
Bayern Munich
Manuel Neuer and Lucas Hernandez are both long-term absentees for Bayern Munich, while French centre-half Dayot Upamecano is suspended for Sunday's game. Upamecano was sent off early on in Bayern's 3-2 loss at Borussia Monchengladbach last weekend.
Predicted Lineup for Bayern Munich: Sommer – Cancelo, de Ligt, Pavard, Davies – Kimmich, Goretzka, Musiala – Muller, Sane, Gnabry
Union Berlin
Jakob Busk has a cold, though the keeper should shake it off in time to join the matchday squad on Sunday. Andras Schafer is still working his way back from a foot issue and won't play, however. Union enjoyed a terrific 3-1 win over Ajax in the Europa League on Thursday evening.
Predicted Lineup for Union Berlin: Ronnow – Doekhi, Knoche, Leite – Juranovic, Haberer, Khedira, Laidouni, Roussillon – Behrens, Becker
Player to Watch – Robin Knoche
Robin Knoche is the keystone of Union Berlin’s rock-solid defence and the 30-year-old rarely puts a foot wrong when representing the Iron Ones. Knoche was outstanding against Ajax on Thursday evening, and he played an important role in helping Union to a win at RB Leipzig just a couple of weeks back.
Starting Lineups
Official lineups are usually released approximately one hour before kick-off.
