Wolfsburg-Union Berlin is a Bundesliga match of the twenty-fourth day and is played on Sunday at 19:30: tv, formations, predictions.
Ten points in the standings, in favour of the visiting side, divide the two teams at the moment. But, despite this, the situation at the moment belongs to Wolfsburg.
Yes, the hosts, also trying to take advantage of the fact that Union Berlin played last Thursday in Europe, and that they will play again in Belgium next Thursday after the 3-3 draw at home, could take three very heavy points that would relaunch them in a race for European qualification for next year. Of course, in the last five outings, Wolfsburg have only won once, and that was away at Cologne, for the rest there have only been draws and defeats that have effectively excluded the home team from those who would go on to play in the Conference and Europa League next year. Little bad, the time to come back is certainly there, even if today’s match is almost decisive. The three points are needed, otherwise things might take a turn for the worse.
On the other hand, Union Berlin, currently fourth in the standings, are hoping to overtake Leipzig, who had no problem beating Gladbach yesterday, and thus return to third place with a view to second place, the one occupied by Borussia Dortmund. A situation that greatly intrigues the team from the German capital, which, however, knows very well that next week’s engagement is very important for the economy of the season. Going ahead would mean fuelling European dreams of glory too good to be true. And the qualities, for what has been shown so far in the league, are there.
Wolfsburg committed against Bayern Munich
The Prediction
In short, as far as we’ve told you before, even if only slightly, Wolfsburg seem to be the favourites: a match with at least three goals in total and at least one goal per team, on this point there seems to be no argument, especially given the general trend of the two teams.
