Draw no Bet – Union Berlin

Union Berlin have made an excellent start to the new season in Germany and their early swagger was on show in their superb 2-1 triumph over RB Leipzig last weekend. In-form Die Eisernen should prove tough to topple again this weekend when they travel to take on newly-promoted Schalke 04, though it is worth approaching the game with a degree of caution. Union have dropped points in 60% of their last 10 Bundesliga away assignments, so side with them in the draw no bet market for an added safety net.

Both Teams to Score

Schalke 04 are still hunting for their first win this term, though they did produce their best performance of the campaign so far in the only match they’ve contested at the VELTINS-Arena since their promotion. Schalke notched twice that day in a 2-2 draw with Gladbach and with the home crowd pushing them on, they should be able to impact the scoresheet again on Saturday. Union have notched five times in three fixtures since the summer however, and they can be backed with confidence to add increase their tally here. With that in mind, consider backing both teams to score.
