Bayer Leverkusen vs Union Berlin Prediction & Betting Tips - Bundesliga

Leverkusen host Union Berlin for the thirteenth Bundesliga round. The hosts were held to a goalless draw in midweek, yet managed to progress to the Europa League as third from their group, courtesy of Atletico Madrid faltering at Oporto. Things under Xabi Alonso do not look like they have kicked off well however. Leverkusen are winless in their last six games, conceding fourteen times in the process. They are also in the relegation play-off place at the moment, with the tally of nine points from twelve games being undoubtedly dismal for a team that finished in the top 4 last year. To make matters worse, Leverkusen have won just two of their last ten at the BayArena, but have never lost against Union in each of their previous home meetings. 

Urs Fischer’s side continue to stun the footballing world. Possessing just one of the division’s smallest budgets, the Berlin club have managed to top the Bundesliga and progress from their Europa League group. Union’s numbers are truly astounding. They have won eight of their last nine games, keeping clean sheets in seven of them. They have also prevailed in three of their last four away games, with all of those victories coming with the same scoreline. It looks like the only metric not siding with them for this encounter is the H2H record, with Union having never won at the BayArena.
