Union Berlin vs Bayern Munich Prediction
Die Eisernen returned to winning ways after three games last week and will look to build on that form. They also scored for the first time after two games in that win. Interestingly, they have won just one of their last nine home games, failing to score in five games in that period.
Kevin Volland, Kevin Vogt, and Alexander Schwolow missed the match against Frankfurt due to an illness but are back in full training. Aljoscha Kemlein, Robert Skov, and Oluwaseun Ogbemudia are likely to sit this one out.
Die Bayern suffered their first home loss in the Bundesliga since March 2024 last week and will look to bounce back here. They have an unbeaten record against the capital club and are strong favorites.
Aleksandar Pavlović, Kim Min-jae, and Manuel Neuer are expected back in the fold only after the international break. João Palhinha was red-carded last week and is suspended for this match.
The league leaders have an impressive record in this fixture and, considering their better goalscoring record, the visitors are expected to register a comfortable win.
