Union Berlin-Bochum is a match of the 28th day of Bundesliga and is played on Saturday at 5:30pm: TV, formations, predictions.
Leipzig winning their match yesterday took third place in the German league from Union Berlin. Although, the team from the German capital will play today against Bochum. And it certainly has huge chances to secure its place in the Champions League.
For a long time this season, the home team led the Bundelisga before giving up and making room for the big boys. But the great season so far has allowed them to dream of a qualification to the next top European competition that is there, just a step away.Union Berlin only needs to do its own to succeed. And their own means winning games that are definitely within reach like today’s against a Bochum team fighting for salvation.
Of course, Union’s moment is not the best: two defeats in the last two and overall three in the last five outings. At home, however, Fischer’s troop is a steamroller: conceding little, scoring a lot, and winning most of all. And that is what it has to do today and in all likelihood will do today. There is no doubt who is the favorite in this match. Not least because, to top it off, Bochum away from home is a team that cannot get a consistent pace. It loses often and a few times has managed to bring in points. In short, the indications are really all pointing in one direction. That of a clear-cut affirmation by the hosts.
A Union Berlin jubilation
The prediction
