RB Leipzig vs Union Berlin

RB Leipzig and 1. FC Union Berlin are meeting on matchday 3, just as they did last season. Leipzig did the double over Union in 2023/24 after losing each of the previous five Bundesliga encounters (all 2-1). The two teams have each won five times against one another in the Bundesliga (0 draws).

RB Leipzig have won their opening two Bundesliga fixtures for just the second time ever. They previously managed to do so in 2019/20 under Julian Nagelsmann, when they even won on matchday 3 as well.

After their home win over FC St. Pauli, 1. FC Union Berlin are unbeaten after the first two matchdays for the fourth consecutive Bundesliga season (W1, D1). Only FC Bayern have also remained unbeaten in their opening two fixtures since the 2021/22 campaign.

RB Leipzig are unbeaten in 13 Bundesliga games (W9 D4), currently a league best. Their last league defeat came on 24th February at FC Bayern (2-1). In their top-flight history, RBL have only ever put together one longer undefeated run: 15 games from January to May 2019.

RB Leipzig ended Bayer 04 Leverkusen’s 35-game unbeaten run in the Bundesliga last time out. It marked the first time since February 2021 that Leipzig have won a Bundesliga game after trailing by two goals (3-2 against Gladbach).
