Borussia Dortmund
- Dortmund are in much better form, going into this game unbeaten in their last five matches with four wins and one draw.
- Their 2026/27 Bundesliga season has seen them win four and draw one of their five matches.
1. FC Union Berlin
- Union, under their new boss Mauro Lustrinelli who took charge on 1 July 2026, have gone much more proactive and are much more possession-based.
- Union have conceded the majority of the play too often and it shows in the table where they have just one point from four games.
Head-to-Head
- Borussia Dortmund are the Bundesliga 2026/2027 leaders with 13 points after 5 matches, while 1. FC Union Berlin are in 17th position with 1 point from 4 outings
- Dortmund have won the last 2 head-to-head matches and beat Union 3-0 away from home in Bundesliga 2025/2026
- This has been leaning Dortmund's way in recent times with the Schwarzgelben taking the points in the last two meetings and the visitors have a lot more quality to play with in every area of the pitch.
Key Players
- Fabio Silva has been Dortmund's finisher in the early going with two goals in three Bundesliga 2026/2027 games while Josip Juranovic has provided the spark with two assists in the same number of games.
- But, for Union, Tim Skarke has been their danger man with two in four Bundesliga 2026/2027 games while his two have accounted for both of Union's goals in their last five games.
Betting Insights
- Borussia Dortmund will be very tough to stop when they meet 1. FC Union Berlin at Alte Foersterei this Saturday, so take the away team to win at 1.73.
- Over 2.5 goals at 1.44 is also recommended because Dortmund have the attacking edge and Serhou Guirassy brings some serious bite to their line-up with three of their ten goals in their last five coming from his boots.
Prediction
They are likely to take the points but Union's compact block could keep this closer than the odds suggest so take them to share the spoils in a 2-2 draw at 4.45 .
