Union Berlin vs Werder Bremen Prediction & Betting Tips (16 March)

This 2023-2024 season will go down as the worst achieved by Union Berlin since its accession to the elite in 2019. Completely missing the point during the first part of this exercise, the capital club mainly focused on strive to save the furniture since the arrival of new coach Nenad Bjelica in December. The hardest part seems to have been done for the Iron Men who have distanced themselves from the red zone and who are 7 units ahead of the barrage at the start of this 26th day. However, the Berliners have not won for 3 games. And after being held by Heidenheim 2-2, they have just suffered 2 defeats against Dortmund 0-2 and Stuttgart 2-0 last Friday. Werder Bremen, for its part, has no reason to be ashamed of its record this season.

It is in fact in 10th position in the ranking with 30 units on the clock. Better yet, the visitors are only 3 small points behind 7th place which could qualify for Europe at the end of the season and which would therefore be a great goal. However, the Werderaner are fishing a little at the moment. Since their last success against Cologne 0-1, they had to be content with taking a point against Darmstadt 1-1 before being beaten by Hoffenheim 2-1 and Borussia Dortmund 1-2 last week.

Union Berlin should prepare for this meeting without midfielder Haberer who has joined the infirmary and without Hungarian striker Schäfer who is suspended due to an accumulation of yellow cards. Otherwise, the Berlin group should be complete for this meeting. With 6 goals on the clock, left-back Gosens remains the most effective player in this team ahead of young striker Hollerbach who has scored only 3 times this year in the Bundesliga. The young Opitz and the defender not always starting Pieper will probably not make the trip to the capital this weekend, injured just like the unused Hansen-Aaroen and the important Stark who was injured last week.

If the environment Deman is back from suspension, his competitor for the position Schmid will have to pay for an accumulation of yellow cards. Offensively, the duo composed of the formidable attacker Ducksch (9 goals) and the young Njinmah should be reappointed. The second city also scored its 6th goal of the season last weekend.
