Expert Betting Tips
Taking everything into account — Leverkusen's dominance at home, their unbeaten record in the Bundesliga, and Union Berlin's recent defensive improvement — this match tilts slightly in favour of the home side. Leverkusen has been clinical in front of goal, averaging over two goals per home game, and their ability to control the midfield through Florian Wirtz and Granit Xhaka gives them a strong platform to break down even the most disciplined defences. Union Berlin, while improved, remains limited in attack and often struggles to come from behind when trailing — a dangerous flaw against one of the league’s most balanced teams.
Leverkusen will likely dominate possession and push Union deep into their own half, forcing mistakes and eventually capitalizing on the pressure. Union might threaten on the counter, but with Leverkusen’s defensive organization and recent form, it’s hard to see them doing enough to take points here.
