Union Berlin to Win
Union Berlin are starting to look less like a flash in the pan and more like genuine title contenders this season and their 2-0 win over Borussia Dortmund last weekend felt like a major statement. On Sunday, the Iron Ones travel to take on bottom club Bochum, where anything other than an away win would be seen as a big surprise. However, the bookies don’t seem quite so confident and incredibly, you can still grab prices at close to evens for league-leading Union to beat the Bundesliga’s worst team.
Both Teams to Score – No
Union Berlin have been setting high standards defensively this term and they have shipped just six goals in ten Bundesliga fixtures since the start of the season. That meagre haul arms Union with the division’s best defensive record and they have claimed six clean sheets in their last seven games in all competitions. In the league, Union have secured a joint-hight five shutouts and another blank could be in the works when they visit struggling Bochum. Unsurprisingly, Bochum have scored fewer goals than any other side so far and a stake on both teams not to score on Sunday could be a savvy move.
