THE PREDICTION
Union Berlin have won all three previous meetings between these two sides in the top flight and go into this one unbeaten in four games and having lost just once at home in the league all season. Their recent matches have been low on goals, with the last six producing just six in total - three for and three against. They welcome a Koln side who have largely struggled for goals in recent months. The Billy Goats have drawn a blank in eight of their last 13 Bundesliga matches, and are the third-lowest scorers in the league overall, so they may well struggle to breach a solid Berlin defence. Under 2.5 Goals therefore looks like the best option here.
