Wolfsburg hosts Union Berlin in round 25 of the German Bundesliga. The match will be played on Saturday, March 5th at Volkswagen Arena (Wolfsburg)
In the last round, Wolfsburg faced Borussia Monchengladbach away, and the teams failed to determine the winner (2-2). Before that, Florian Kohfeldt's men lost to Hoffenheim at home (1-2). Before the start of the season, the Wolves were considered one of the contenders for a place in the Champions League zone. But now they are in 12th position in the standings with 28 points after 24 rounds. The margin from the first of the three outsiders is five points. For comparison, the gap to the top six is 12 points. Wolfsburg earned the same number of points at home and away (14). All their indicators at the home stadium are as follows: four victories, two draws, and six defeats with a goal difference of 13-17. As for the last six home matches, the Wolves won only once.

Union Berlin returned to the winning path a week ago, breaking a streak of three consecutive defeats. Let me remind you that the Iron Ones were stronger than Mainz at home (3-1). Thanks to that victory, the metropolitan team continued to claim a place in European competitions. Now it is on the 7th line in the standings with 37 points. The lag behind the European Cup zone is three points. Urs Fischer's men perform well at home (24 points earned in 12 games). But they scored only 13 points in 12 away games. All away statistics look like this: three victories, four draws, and five defeats with a goal difference of 15-19. Union Berlin lost the last two away games without scoring a single goal.
In the first part of the season, Union Berlin beat Wolfsburg at home with a score of 2-0. But in the last head-to-head match at Volkswagen Arena, the Wolves coped with the Iron Ones without any problems (3-0). Wolfsburg cannot boast of stable results. Yes, the Green-Whites managed to break away from the relegation zone by seven points. But of course, this is not the result that the team, which took part in the group stage of the Champions League, is counting on. I will add that Wolfsburg scored nine goals in the previous four matches. Union Berlin won in the last round and continued the pursuit of the European competition zone. Beyond that, the Berliners advanced to the German Cup semifinals in the middle of the week. I do not rule out that the additional load will have a negative impact on the performance of the team. As for the upcoming game, I think the teams will share points.
