Union Berlin preview: Mid-table Union
Union Berlin have fought well above their weight for a while now and they are, again, performing above general expectations as they try and stay in touch with the top seven and potential European qualification.
The capital city club went into the break on the back of a 4-0 hammering at the hands of Bayern Munich a couple of weeks ago, meaning that they have now suffered three defeats in their last four matches.
St Pauli preview: Struggling St Pauli
St Pauli begin the weekend sitting third-from-bottom and in the end of season relegation playoff place. They are two points behind Cologne, and outright safety, ahead of the 28th match day of the campaign.
The visitors had shown some fight in the early stages of spring but they went into the international break on the back of back-to-back losses against Borussia Monchengladbach and then Freiburg.

Union Berlin vs St Pauli prediction
Home advantage will mean that Union Berlin should take the initiative here. However, in an often chaotic league, Union are one of the more reactive and calmer sides. Given that, as well as the fact that St Pauli will more than respect and value the draw and any point they can get their hands on, it may not the most thrilling watch for the neutral in the capital this weekend.
Union Berlin vs St Pauli tip: Under 2.5 goals
