Borussia Dortmund will look to bounce back from the midweek disappointment in the UEFA Champions League (UCL) when they travel to an inconsistent Union Berlin on matchday six. This match on Saturday at the Stadion An der Alten Försterei in Berlin between the 16th-placed ‘Iron Ones’ and the 2nd-placed ‘Black and Yellow’ could turn out to be a tough one for the hosts with our match prediction backing an away victory.

Ahead of this round, Union’s four points (W1, D1, L3) put them in the relegation playoff spot, albeit only by goal difference. Dortmund’s 13 points (W4, D1) keep them level on points with Freiburg but behind on goal difference.

Union edged Elversberg 1-0 at home last weekend to record a first win of the league campaign (D1, L3). It also came right on the heels of a 7-0 drubbing at the hands of Bayern Munich before the international break. That came on the road for the Iron Ones, who won just one of their three away league games.

Dortmund lost 1-0 away at Bodo/Glimt on Wednesday in the UCL competition, which was preceded by a 2-2 home draw against Werder Bremen. Having won their last four away competitive games, Dortmund will look to bounce back from the midweek loss in Europe.

Our Union Berlin vs Borussia Dortmund Prediction

Dortmund lost in the midweek Champions League fixture, which means they are winless in two games, going back to last week’s draw against Bremen in the Bundesliga. With the top four teams separated by just three points, any slip-up will see them move out of the top three. The union got their first win of the season last time out, but is that enough to spark a revival?

Dortmund have won their last three matches against Union, that too without conceding a goal. Their winning streak could continue, so our Union Berlin vs Borussia Dortmund prediction is Borussia Dortmund wins.
