Union Berlin vs Greuther Fürth

Union Berlin’s bid to burst into the Bundesliga top four continues this weekend as they welcome dead-last Greuther Fürth to the Stadion An der Alten Försterei.

Union Berlin have gone from strength to strength since a thumping 4-0 defeat at Bayern Munich, stringing together four Bundesliga wins, including a come-from-behind 2-1 victory at RB Leipzig last time out. With three Bundesliga matchdays left, Union cannot take their foot off the gas if they were to hunt down a four-point deficit on fourth-placed Leipzig. Back at home, ‘Die Eisernen’ will turn to their four-match unbeaten league streak at Alten Försterei (W3, D1) for inspiration. Only Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund have won at this venue in 2021/22, where Urs Fischer’s men boast an impressive 87% unbeaten Bundesliga ratio (W9, D4). But with 56% of Union’s home league wins this season yielding a single-goal margin, the local fans could be in for another nail-biting contest.

Despite taking an early lead at home last time out, Greuther Fürth slumped to an underwhelming 4-1 loss to Bayer Leverkusen, extending their winless Bundesliga run to nine games (D4, L5). That defeat put the final nail in Fürth’s coffin, sending them back to Germany’s second-tier. With nothing but pride left to play for, ‘Die Kleeblätter’ will at least hope to save some dignity and post their first Bundesliga win on the road this season (D3, L12). However, that’s a far-fetched dream, as they’ve netted a league joint-low 11 goals away from home this Bundesliga season while conceding more away goals (46) than any other side. Moreover, they’ve failed to win any of their last three competitive visits to Union Berlin (D1, L2), shipping 3+ goals in the most recent two.
