Union Berlin Set to Avoid Defeat at Home

Union Berlin have collected three wins and two draws in their last five league outings, showing they rarely lose at the Alte Försterei. At home they average 1.3 goals scored and 1.5 conceded, keeping two clean sheets in four home matches. Köln score just 0.7 goals per away game and have managed only two wins in their last ten visits to Union. Head-to-head figures show Union unbeaten in eight of the last ten meetings, with three of those ending level. Both sides enter the weekend with identical recent records of two wins, two draws and one defeat, underlining how evenly matched the teams are. Köln have scored three or more goals in four of seven league games but struggle to do so away from home. The main risk lies in whether Köln can break down a compact Union defence on the day.
