Wolfsburg, Recent FormIt's fair to say Wolfsburg will have been relatively pleased with a point from their last encounter with Eintracht Frankfurt, a match that ended in a 2-2 draw. They achieved 52% possession in that match and had 12 strikes at goal, with 7 hitting the target, up against Eintracht Frankfurt's tally of 10 efforts at goal, 2 of which were on target.
It seems pretty certain that Niko Kovač will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 7 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 11 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. They have recently found some good scoring form at home, hitting the net in 5 of their last 6 matches at The Volkswagen Arena.
Having drawn 2 of their last 6 games they have at least put some points on the table, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
Union Berlin, Recent FormUnion Berlin manager Urs Fischer will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 0-0 draw in his team's last league outing against Köln. They came away from that fixture with a 51% share of the possession and clocked up 8 attempts on goal with 2 on target, in comparison to Köln, who managed 10 attempts on goal, 4 of which were on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 6 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 5 and seen valuable points lost. Chalking up goals on the road is something their fans have become accustomed to, with them hitting the net in 4 of their last 6 matches. They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games.
They've shown some decent form of late, being unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 matches, with 3 of the 5 being victories for good measure.
With 2 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Union Berlin, Janik Haberer will be looking to add more goals against Wolfsburg in this match.
When these two teams last met in the league it was a 2-0 win for Union Berlin.
Wolfsburg have managed to keep a clean sheet against Die Eisernen in each of their previous 3 meetings at The Volkswagen Arena. Playing at home, Wolfsburg have scored in 3 of their last 3 league games against Union.
Union have lost the last 3 times they've have visited Wolfsburg in the league and have failed to win any of their last 3 encounters at The Volkswagen Arena.
There is only really one injury concern for the Wolfsburg manager Niko Kovač ahead of this clash, with Bartol Franjić (Muscle) missing out, which gives Kovač a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
Urs Fischer has a number of injury concerns in his Union squad to contend with: Timo Baumgartl (COVID-19), Niko Gießelmann (Physical discomfort), Jérôme Roussillon (Knock) and András Schäfer (Foot)
