The Bundesliga returns to action on Friday as Union Berlin hosts RB Leipzig.
The home side enters the weekend sitting comfortably in mid-table. Occupying the 12th spot in the table, Union Berlin is as far away from the relegation zone as it is from competing for a place in Europe.
Despite not having to worry about dropping down a division, Steffen Baumgart’s side has only one win in its last five league matches.
