Union Berlin Team News: Juranovic to play with Trimmel out

Christopher Trimmel’s suspension should ensure that Josip Juranovic is nailed on to play at right-back for Union Berlin. Kemlein and Ogbemudia also won’t feature for the home side in this match, whilst a knee problem could rule out Kevin Vogt.

Predicted XI (4-2-3-1): Ronnow; Juranovic, Doekhi, Leite, Skov; Haberer, Khedira; Skarke, Jeong, Hollerbach; Ilic

Unavailable: Kemlein (Injured), Ogbemudia (Injured), Trimmel (Suspended)

Predicted XI (4-2-3-1): Nicolas; Scally, Itakura, Friedrich, Ullrich; Neuhaus, Weigl; Ngoumou, Hack, Plea; Kleindienst

Union Berlin vs Borussia Monchengladbach Prediction

Union Berlin are in a strange position right now, stuck down in 13th-place but at the same time a full ten points clear of the bottom three. Their players certainly remain motivated though with four points from their last two games and they’ll no doubt want to try and put a run together now if possible, with nine points between them and the top six.

Borussia Monchengladbach meanwhile, are starting to knock on the door of those European spots after gaining seven points from the last nine available, a run of fixtures which has seen them six goals and remain unbeaten against the likes of Stuttgart and Eintracht Frankfurt. Positive results like that indicate how strong a team Gladbach are right now and how they dug in against Frankfurt last time out cannot be underestimated. Consider backing the visitors via the double chance market to pick up a point, if not all three in the German capital.
