Union Berlin vs Schalke: Tips, prediction and odds – Betting preview for Bundesliga clash
Union Berlin will hope to stop the rot against Schalke today in a match that pits the two clubs at the bottom of the Bundesliga's form table.
SunSport are on hand with our tips and all the odds you need for this Bundesliga match.
LADBROKES
Union were the surprise package of the Bundesliga this season; comfortably mid-table by playing a style of unattractive but effective football.
But the wheels have come off for the top-flight newcomers in recent weeks, especially since football resumed - they've lost by at least two goals in five of their last six games and have conceded the opener in five straight matches.
Backing Schalke to score first is a cool 23/20 with Ladbrokes.
But Schalke have their own problems and the walls are closing in for manager David Wagner, whose side are on a dreadful 11-game winless streak.
This could be a scrappy match that's won or lost by fine-margins.
We like the look of 2-1 to Union Berlin at 8/1 with Ladbrokes.
