Borussia Dortmund v Union Berlin: what to expect from the BVB?

Borussia in theory still has chances to guarantee themselves a spot in the Champions League. To do this, the BVB need to get to the fourth line, which is currently four points away. On April 3, Dortmund lost to Eintracht (1:2) in a crucial game, letting their direct rival gain those precious three points. After that fiasco, Borussia were able to bounce back and win two games in a row - over Herta (2:0) and Werder Bremen (4:1).

The hosts are missing Schmelzer, Sancho, Witzel, and Delaney due to injuries.

Union Berlin also do not give up its ambitions to get into the European club competitions. Now the Berliners are eighth in the overall standings, with 43 points gained during the season. There is a gap of four points between the team and the Top-6.

For three matches in a row, Union have not tasted defeat. In the last Bundesliga game, the Iron ones beat Stuttgart at home (2:1), and before that, they snatched points from Bayern away (1:1), and drew Gerta in the Berlin derby (1:1).

Ujah, Dajaku, Becker, and Awoniyi are out due to injuries
