Prediction: 1-2
Union Berlin
Werder Bremen will be aiming to bounce back from a massive defeat (1-7) to Koln when they face Union Berlin in the Bundesliga round 17. Die Werderaner experienced all sorts of problems at the back in the RheinEnergieStadion loss, and it is no wonder the odds for away win have been dropping. Both Schmidt and Dinkci are pushing for recalls to the starting XI, whereas Romano Schmid and Felix Agu remain on the sidelines with injuries.
Niclas Fulkrug, who represented Germany at the 2022 World Cup finals, should continue to lead the line for the hosts. The capital club, on the other hand, came from behind to beat Hoffenheim 3-1 in front of home fans. Union Berlin are more of a team than Werder Bremen, and we predict that the visitors are going to take advantage of die Werderaner’s shaky defence. The likes of Sven Michel, Morten Thorsby, and Andras Schafer should miss out with injuries for the away team.
Highlighted Player (Oliver Burke):
A product of the Nottingham Forest football academy, Oliver Burke made his domestic debut in 2014, when he was only 17 years of age. Born in Kirkcaldy, Oliver Burke is the captain of Scotland Under-21 side who’s faced plenty of criticism ever since leaving the Championship side.
Having left Forest for Red Bull Leipzig in 2016 in a £13 million deal Oliver Burke became the most expensive Scottish player in history, whereas his hit the record book all over again the very next year when West Bromwich Albion saved him from a German misery in a £15 million deal. Burke was regularly praised for his physical ability during his time in the Bundesliga, but Leipzig coaching staff had plenty of tactical questions hanging over his head.
A precocious talent who had only scraped the surface of his own potential, Burke is looking to get his career back on track. Despite being only 21 years of age, Burke already has 5 senior appearances for Scotland under his belt.
Highlighted Team (Union Berlin):
Union Berlin are a German football club originally founded back in 1906. Die Eisernen play home games at Stadion An der Alten Forsterei which can hold up to 22,012 spectators. Union Berlin’s home kit is red, with the team wearing white shirts and white shorts on the travels.
Union Berlin finished the 1923 domestic campaign as runners-up, with the team suffering a 3-0 loss to Hamburger SV in the title game. Speaking of the club’s biggest success in the German Cup, die Eisernen made it to the final of the competition in the 2000/2001 season. Schalke, though, proved to be a big catch for Union Berlin in the decider, with Jorg Bohme scoring a brace for die Knappen (2-0).
Union Berlin will face their local rivals Hertha in the 2019/2020 Bundesliga season as they secured promotion to the German top flight, but Hansa Rostock are considered the club’s main rivals.
