Half-Time/Full-Time: Wolfsburg/Wolfsburg

Oliver Glasner's men do not let up against their rivals. Their intensity at the start of the game and at its end remains the same. This is the reason behind their third-place standing in the Bundesliga points table. It has attributed to Die Wolfe impressive HT/FT record of 12, accounting for more than half of their 57 points accumulated. Such has been their ability that this statistic has only been bested by Hansi Flick's Bayern Munich.

Total Goals: Under 2.5

Chief to Wolfsburg's success has been their ability to contain their rivals. While not being the most attractive side when going forward, Die Wolfe can be relied upon to be assured at the back. They boast of the second-best defensive record in the Bundesliga, with just 32 goals conceded. They average a paltry 2.7 goals per game at the Weserstadion and three of their last five games have seen less than three goals.

Clean sheet: Wolfsburg

After managing six successive clean sheets at home, Wolfsburg's defence gave way to Bayern Munich's forwards. In the subsequent fixture at the Weserstadion, Borussia Dortmund's forwards had a field day. Glasner would not have appreciated this slide and must have addressed it in the 14-day gap afforded to them. With Union finding it hard to score with regularity on the road, expect Wolfsburg to claim another clean sheet.

Wolfsburg vs Union Berlin: Team News and Match Preview

VfL Wolfsburg

Die Wolfe have been in the top four for the duration of the 2020/21 Bundesliga campaign. However, their recent poor form has put their position under threat as Borussia Dortmund lurk around. They have succumbed to three defeats in their last five fixtures to direct competitors and need to avoid a repeat of their showings. While their defence has let them down, Wout Weghorst continues to shine at the top. The Dutch forward has scored 20 goals this season, with six of them coming in his last eight outings.

Union Berlin

Union Berlin have shown a tendency to frustrate their rivals this campaign, as evidenced by their league-high 13 draws. They will be ruing the dropped points come the end of the season if their fortunes do not improve. The Iron Ones are out of the last UEFA Europa League qualifying spots owing to their poor goal difference. With Borussia Monchengladbach travelling to the Allianz Arena, Urs Fischer's men have the chance to leapfrog their rivals with an improved showing. The burden of scoring will be on Max Kruse, who has ten goals and five assists to his name but has not gotten on the scoreboard in his .last five outings.
