Union Berlin vs RB Leipzig Prediction & Betting Tips (12 December)

The record displayed by Union Berlin after the first 13 days is not particularly brilliant but it still allows it to hope to validate its maintenance without too many problems. Because with 15 points on the clock, the capital club is in 12th position in the standings with a fairly comfortable margin of 4 points over the first non-relegation team at the start of this new day. That said, the dynamic is not very good for the Iron Men who remain on 3 losses in a row in all competitions since their last success against Sankt Pauli 0-1. The Berliners were in fact dominated by Heidenheim 1-2, by Bayern in the Cup 2-3 and finally by Wolfsburg 3-1 last weekend.

On the other side of the field, RB Leipzig is much more to its advantage than its opponent of the day. 2nd in the ranking, RasenBall Sport is one of the great satisfactions of this first part of the season across the Rhine even if 1st place, currently occupied by Bayern Munich who are 8 lengths ahead, seems inaccessible for the moment. Still in good form, Ole Werner's men have just won 3 of their last 4 matches in all competitions against Werder Bremen 2-0, Borussia Mönchengladbach 0-0, Magdeburg 3-1 in the Cup and especially against Eintracht Frankfurt 6-0 last weekend. 

As during the trip to Wolfsburg, the young defender Markgraf and the Dane Robert Skov have yet to withdraw, just like the young Bogdanov. Suspended for an accumulation of yellow cards last weekend, midfielder Khedira should be able to regain his place in midfield. Quite disappointing in their last performances, the Scotsman Burke (3 goals) and the Serbian Ilic (4 assists) were only substitutes last weekend. Conversely, the rather formidable striker Ansah (4 goals) started well, without much success. Leipzig must still do without the former executives Henrichs and Kampl and without the defender central Bitshiabu which are on the floor.

From plus, the Brazilian Rômulo (4 goals and 4 assists to his credit) and the promising German international Ouedraogo (3 goals in the Bundesliga including 1 last weekend) have not been restored either. Midfielder Baku and now little-known striker Werner must also give up. On the other hand, the excellent Austrian midfielder Baumgartner is well operational, he who displays excellent statistics (6 goals, 5 assists in the Bundesliga). Winger Diomandé (6 goals, 2 assists) remains on a hat-trick scored against Frankfurt last week. The probable line-ups for Union Berlin - RB Leipzig:
