RB Leipzig vs Union Berlin Prediction
RB Leipzig are 3rd in the league, nine points behind 2nd-placed Borussia Dortmund. Few could have envisioned this standing for RB Leipzig after an extremely inconsistent start to the season, and manager Domenico Tedesco deserves praise for the work he has done.
Union Berlin, on the other hand, are sixth in the league and have won their last three league games. They have been one of the better teams in the Bundesliga under Urs Fischer's management.
RB Leipzig should win.
Prediction: RB Leipzig 1-0 Union Berlin
