Union Berlin vs Bayer Leverkusen Prediction & Picks - Bundesliga
by Simon Day | in Bundesliga Picks
Runaway Bundesliga leaders Bayer Leverkusen can move a big step towards the title by claiming three points at mid table Union Berlin on Sunday. Xavi Alonso's men are in the midst of an incredible undefeated season and can still claim three trophies. As well as being 13 points clear at the top of the league, they are also in the quarter finals of the Europa League and the final of the German Cup. Their most recent league victory came in dramatic fashion at home to Hoffenheim last weekend. Trailing 1-0 with just 2 minutes remaining, late goals from Robert Andrich and Patrick Schick saw them turn the game on its head to grab a vital three points.
In contrast, Union Berlin have had a down season after last year's top 4 finish. They currently sit in 12th place, nine points above the relegation zone. Barring a dramatic collapse, they will be playing Bundesliga football again next season. Their recent results have reflected their season as a whole. In their last six games they have experienced two wins, two draws and two defeats. Goals have been the main issue for Union, and their tally of 25 is the third lowest in the division.

Our Union Berlin vs Bayer Leverkusen Prediction
Everything is pointing towards yet another Leverkusen win here. They look seemingly unstoppable, and even when they have an off day (such as last week versus Hoffenheim), they find a way to win. Meanwhile, Union have very little to play for and the end of the season cannot come soon enough after a largely underwhelming campaign. As such, we think it will be a comfortable three points for the champions elect.
Whilst Union are fairly solid defensively, the visitors have the firepower to make this a very long afternoon for the hosts. Schick and Florian Wirtz are in fine goalscoring form, and Leverkusen have scored at least twice in each of their last eight league games. Our prediction is Union Berlin v Bayer Leverkusen: Away win and over 2.5 goals.
