Union Berlin vs RB Leipzig Prediction, Lineups, Injuries and Team News

Matchday 14 of the 2025/26 Bundesliga season will include Union Berlin welcoming RB Leipzig at the Stadion An der Alten Forsterei. The two teams have experienced contrasting success this season. Union Berlin remain 12th in the Bundesliga table with 15 points, while RB Leipzig occupies the second spot on the back of 29 points so far.

Union Berlin vs RB Leipzig Preview

Union Berlin has endured tough times recently. In the last six matches, Berlin has managed just a single victory to go with three defeats and two draws. During this period, the club has scored 10 goals and also conceded 10. Head coach Steffen Baumgart will have to check and solve the inconsistencies to avoid the risk of dropping into the relegation zone. The forwards have to step forward and take the responsibility of solving the problems of goals, which is highlighted by the fact that a centre back, Danilho Doekhi, is the top scorer for this season with five goals.

RB Leipzig will be content and satisfied with how the latest encounters have played out. Leipzig has accumulated four victories, a draw, and a defeat in the last six games with an aggregate score of 15-5. After losing some key players in the summer transfer window, many expected RB Leipzig to struggle in the league. However, no European commitments have played into the club's hands.

David Raum has been a key player in RB Leipzig's success this season. The German international has won 42 duels this season and has recorded 66 recoveries. Here is an overview of the Union Berlin vs RB Leipzig Prediction.
