Greuther Furth vs Union Berlin prediction, preview, team news and more | Bundesliga 2021-22

The Bundesliga returns this weekend and will see Greuther Furth host Union Berlin on Sunday afternoon.

Greuther Furth's abysmal run continued last weekend as they were demolished 7-1 by Bayer Leverkusen. Despite halving a two-goal deficit in the first half, the Bundesliga new boys conceded five more goals, thereby extending their losing streak to 12 games.

Greuther Furth sit rock-bottom in the Bundesliga with just one point. They will be desperate to begin picking up points as they look to avoid an immediate return to the second tier.

Union Berlin picked up a thoroughly deserved 2-1 win over RB Leipzig last weekend. They could have won by a larger margin as they created the majority of the chances. The visitors, however, crashed out of the Europa Conference League on Thursday as they failed to beat Slavia Praha.

Union Berlin are sixth in the league table with 23 points from 14 games. They will be looking to bounce back from their European disappointments with a win on Sunday.
