Will the Hosts Secure a Victory in the Bundesliga Clash?
On Sat, Dec 9, Union Berlin squares off against Borussia M at the "An der Alten Försterei" stadium in the 14th round of the German Bundesliga.

Borussia M, on the other hand, is in the middle of the standings, having alternated wins with losses in recent matches. They aim to build on their latest victory against Hoffenheim and secure their second consecutive win. In prior contests, Gladbach have struggled against Union Berlin, but with renewed focus and determination, they aim to take advantage of the Berliners' current crisis.
In recent years, Union Berlin has defeated Borussia M twice, with over 2.5 goals being scored in three of the last five matches between the teams.
