Union Berlin Team News
In the last competition match, Union Berlin lost to Borussia Dortmund away from home with 4:2. The home team took the lead in the seventh minute, but the equalizer came only two minutes later, with a goal by Robin Gosens, while the assistant was Christopher Trimmel. Nine minutes later, Alex Kral shook the opponent’s net once more, but the goal was disallowed after the VAR decision. In the 27th minute, the home team also scored a goal from behind, and the visitors turned the score in their favor in the 31st minute, with a penalty kick by Leonardo Bonucci. In the second half, the home team scores three more goals and wins this match.
The Union Berlin team currently occupies only the 13th position in the table with only six points won, even eight less than the sixth-placed Leipzig. In the first two rounds of the Champions League, they recorded defeats against Real Madrid and Braga, and in the last seven competitive matches, they recorded all defeats.
Union Berlin will be without Hungarian midfielder Andras Schafer, who is struggling with a knee problem, while Robin Knoche is unlikely to play due to an ankle injury.
From the starting line-up that was defeated by Dortmund last time out, Croatian international Josip Juranović is set to replace club captain Christopher Trimmel on the right flank, but coach Urs Fischer is likely to keep the same group of players despite their poor form of late.

Stuttgart Team News
In the previous championship match, Stuttgart defeated Wolfsburg at home 3:1. Although the guests were the first to take the lead in the first half, the home team managed to turn the score in their favor in the second half of the match and win this match. The first scorer of the league, Serhou Guirassy, scored a hat-trick for Stuttgart in this match, and one assist was recorded by Chris Fuhrich.
Stuttgart is playing great this season, and in the seven games played this season in the Bundesliga, they have recorded as many as six wins and only one loss. They currently occupy a high second position in the table with 18 points, one less than the first-placed Bayer Leverkusen.
The only change for Stuttgart in the starting line-up could be the return of Silas to the team, provided the Congolese winger has overcome his recent injury problems. The 25-year-old came off the bench during his side’s wins against FC Köln and Wolfsburg, but he can undeniably provide another dimension to their attack from the start.
Nikolas Nartey remains sidelined with a long-term knee injury, while Joshua Vagnoman is unlikely to be rushed back, having recently recovered from a fracture, meaning Pascal Stenzel will continue at right-back.

Union Berlin vs Stuttgart Prediction
Although before this match Union Berlin is a slight favorite due to the advantage of the home field, we believe that Stuttgart is closer to victory due to its much better form and state of the table. Also, a more open match with more goals is expected, and our proposal for betting is a draw or a win for the visitors, with at least two goals scored in the entire match.
