Union Berlin close a disappointing Bundesliga campaign at home to an Augsburg side still chasing a possible European finish. While Union are already safe and guaranteed to finish in mid-table, Augsburg have much more riding on the final day as they attempt to qualify for Europe for only the second time in their history.

With Augsburg in stronger form and carrying greater motivation, this Union Berlin vs Augsburg prediction leans toward the visitors avoiding defeat in a tight, low-scoring contest.

Match News and Current Form

Union Berlin finally gave interim boss Marie-Louise Eta her first win last weekend with a 3-1 victory over Mainz. That result came in her fourth game in charge, following one draw and two defeats.

Eta was tasked with steering Union to safety before moving into her role as head coach of the club’s women’s team, and she will now oversee her final match in charge of the men’s side. Although Union have secured their Bundesliga status, the campaign has still been underwhelming, and they will record their lowest-ever Bundesliga points tally regardless of this result.

That lack of major motivation could be important here, especially against an Augsburg side with a clear target.

Augsburg arrive in excellent form, unbeaten in their last six Bundesliga matches with three wins and three draws. Their late-season surge has kept them in contention for a UEFA Conference League place.

To finish seventh, Augsburg must better the results of both Eintracht Frankfurt and Freiburg on the final day. That is not fully in their hands, but Manuel Baum’s side will still be confident after back-to-back away wins at Bayer Leverkusen and Werder Bremen.

Their form, motivation and recent away performances make them dangerous visitors in Berlin.

Team News

Union Berlin will be without Derrick Köhn through suspension, while goalkeeper Frederik Rønnow remains sidelined through injury. Those absences could affect both their defensive balance and build-up play from the back.

Augsburg are missing Kristijan Jakić due to suspension. Dimitrios Giannoulis and Arthur Chaves will need late fitness checks before the final squad is confirmed.
