Game Prediction
On May 5, 2024, as part of the 32nd round of the German Bundesliga 1, the local club, Union will host Bochum in Berlin. Both teams will not be relegated directly, but hope to gain points here to avoid the prospect of a sixteenth-place finish and relegation play-offs.
Key statistics and trends:
- The club from the capital club lost only in April.
- Taking into account 5 previous home matches, Union took 1 win and 4 points.
- Bochum is winless in 9 away games and has already lost 4 times in a row.
Union Berlin – the shape of the team and its analysis: the club relaxed too early
“The Iron Alliance”, after a disastrous autumn period and having replaced the author of all successes, Fischer, has noticeably improved the performance with Bjelica. He, from the end of November to the end of February, won 5 times in 12 rounds and only 3 matches resulted in defeats (the club appeared in the middle of the draw). And, perhaps, the team from the capital decided that the so-called “registration” was guaranteed. As a result, the spring began with a couple of defeats, but to Borussia Dortmund and Stuttgart, after which they won the battle against Werder and shared points in the struggle with Eintracht. Still, the team didn’t add anything, neither with Bayern and Bayer, but also with Augsburg, getting closer to the danger zone in April. A 0-0 draw in the game with Borussia in Mönchengladbach can be put into the asset – the club added another point, which could be vital.
Bochum – the shape of the team and its analysis: almost nothing has worked since the end of winter
“The Undescendables” started the rally weakly – there had not been victories until November. Still, then there were some nice statistics, capped by the February victory over Bayern. It was followed by 4 defeats in a row, and then, having replaced Letsch with Butscher as a coach, the team still alternated between draws and losses, ending up in 16th place. This became an impulse: unstable Hoffenheim was beaten with a 3-2 score at the home arena.
