Borussia Dortmund

WWLDW

Borussia Dortmund had a great game against Koln last week, crushing them 5-1 in a dominant display. That gives Dortmund two wins in as many games in 2020, a solid start to the second half of the Bundesliga season. Erling Haaland was at it yet again, coming on as a substitute to notch a brace in only 25 minutes. That gives him 5 goals on the season in only two substitute appearances.

With the return of Zagadou it will be interesting to see what Favre does with his starting lineup and formation. Zagadou should slide right back into his normal position but the biggest question will be if Haaland gets his first start or not.

Union Berlin

WLLLD

Union Berlin we’re able to get themselves out of a tough losing streak last Saturday as they dispatched of Augsburg 2-0 with former Dortmund fan favourite Neven Subotic finding the back of the net. Subotic will return to the Westfalenstadion once again to face his former team and will no doubt get a standing ovation from the Dortmund faithful.

Union Berlin are currently 6 points outside of the relegation zone and have performed above expectations thus far into the season.
