And with the loss of Leipzig, to Union Berlin, I was quite surprised by it aswell
I had thought that it would not be easy for Leipzig. Union Berlin have achieved a lot since their promotion in 2019 and this season in particular they are rightly in the upper part of the table. They had a worse phase between matchday 23 and 27. But then they won again.
This victory was very important for Union Berlin. It was the revenge for the elimination in the DFB Cup.
RB Leipzig did won over in the DFB-Pokal and yes these two teams seems very close when it comes to skills and potential, but Leipzig seems very lucky on the DFB-Pokal to beat Union Berlin, but on their recent match I think that is Union Berlin's revenge on their recent lost to Leipzig, and anything is very possible to happen in every match but I am still a RB Leipzig fan since last season, but I am a bit surprise with the game stats, but yes luck is not on RB Leipzig side that time.
I am also quite surprised that Leipzig can be defeated by Union Berlin. Moreover, Leipzig's defeat was very dramatic, which Union Berlin scored
two goals in the final minutes of the match. Whereas Leipzig managed to beat Union Berlin in the DFB Cup, before that Leipzig appeared extraordinary
by defeating Leverkusen and also managed to beat Atalanta in the semifinals of the Europa League. Maybe Leipzig underestimated Union Berlin
too much, and the Leipzig players lost concentration in the last minute, until finally Union Berlin managed to turn things around and won.
For Union Berlin, the victory against Leipzig was revenge for being knocked out of the DFB Cup by Leipzig. Union Berlin is playing pretty well actually
in the Bundesliga, Union Berlin in the last 4 matches in the Bundesliga managed to win in a row. No wonder Union Berlin managed to be in 6th position
now, hopefully Union Berlin can win in the remaining 3 matches, so that Union Berlin can stay in the top 6 position and can play in European competition
next season.
Union Berlin is really a formidable opponent and at first I really think they can bulldoze Union Berlin that easily and looking at the game Stats Leipzig should have win that game but luck is not on their side, or they underestimated Union Berlin, and base on their strategy I think Nkunku was force to the side by the Union Berlin and these two teams was very familiar with each other, and I think this match was a revenge match for Leipzig on the DFB-Pokal match that Union Berlin lost to Leipzig, but still a great game to watch and I was really excited and I didn't realize that I was standing on my feet while watching the game,
Bundesliga point table number 4 Leipzig and number 5 Freiburg.Firebug Just 2 point gap in Leipzig. What do you think, who will be top 4 end of season? If Leipzig will lost their next match and freiburg will win their next then next match Firebug will be reached number 4.Both team are strong enough and they played very well this season. Waiting for exactly what happen end of the season.
Leipzig will play vs M'Gladbach, Augsburg and Bielefeld. These games aren't that hard if Leipzig played correctly.
Freiburg will face Hoffenheim, Union and Leverkusen which are harder than the fixture that Leipzig has.
Leverkusen will play vs Frankfurt, Hoffenheim and Freiburg.
Overall, I agree that Leipzig will probably end 3rd, the scenario that I have in mind is that Leverkusen will tie with Freiburg or lose there and Leipzig will jump or confirm the 3rd spot.
Leipzig really need that win very badly, then need to catch up to Leverkusen, and if Leverkusen could lost to Frankfurt then RB Leipzig could elevate again on the 3rd position, last season Leipzig was number 2 in the position, I totally agree that Union Berlin is well prepared like they really know what play the Leipzig will do, so I think Union Berlin could be Leipzig's kryptonite, but Leipzig would need to just win every game they play and from what I see each game they will play Leipzig would surely have a big advantage in winning.
