Bayern Munich v Union Berlin is a match on the 22nd day of the Bundesliga and is played on Sunday at 17:30: TV, formations, predictions.
The news is that in mid-February we are talking about a Bundesliga that is still wide open, with no less than three teams sharing the top of the table, all on 43 points.
In addition to the usual Bayern Munich, who remain the number one favourite for yet another Meisterschale victory, there are also Borussia Dortmund and Union Berlin: but it is the latter that is the real surprise of the championship, who in the Sunday’s post-match match go in search of a historic feat at the home of the reigning German champions. If everything is not already decided as in previous seasons, the credit is also due to this beautiful reality of German football, which until 2019 had never set foot in the top division: the rise to the top of the red and white club has the resounding. Many were convinced that Urs Fischer’s men would soon return to the ranks. And yet, a few months before the end of the tournament, they are still up there at the top, playing against the big teams. Union have no intention of stopping, and they have also proved it in the Europa League, where they have just eliminated a team with three times as much international experience as Trimmel and his teammates, such as Ajax. After a 0-0 draw in Amsterdam, the Lancers had to surrender 3-1 in the German capital at the end of another dream evening for the Eisernen.
Union Berlin haven’t lost since November
Union Berlin are still unbeaten in 2023 but on the final day of the Bundesliga they did not go beyond a blank-net draw with bottom-of-the-table Schalke 04, perhaps feeling the fatigue of the double weekly commitment.
Choupo-Moting
Julian Nagelsmann’s battleship, on the other hand, is coming off yet another misstep in its season. Borussia Park proved to be a taboo for Bayern Munich on Saturday, as they suffered their second defeat of the season against Borussia Monchengladbach in a 3-2 nail-biter, with the Bavarians forced to play with ten men after Upamecano was sent off.
The Prediction
Bayern Munich have not lost any of their seven previous meetings with Union Berlin in the Bundesliga and should get a positive result again this time. Usually the Bavarians are able to react immediately after bad figures like the one in Monchengladach and a convincing victory for them is very likely. At the same time, we believe that the Capitolini can still have their say by scoring at least one goal in the Allianz Arena match.

- BAYERN MONACO (3-5-2): Sommer; Pavard, de Ligt, Davies; Cancelo, Kimmich, Goretzka, Musiala, Coman; Müller, Choupo-Moting.
