Union Berlin vs Schalke — Bundesliga 26/27
Standings & Form · Bundesliga 26/27

Union Berlin's only point came in a 3-3 home draw, while Schalke's came in a 0-0 home draw, and both sides lost their away matches without scoring. The table gap is minimal, but Union Berlin's home scoring gives them a slight edge in this fixture.
Union Berlin15th
Schalke7thBoth sides arrive with identical one-point returns from their opening two league matches, but the shape of that form differs. Union Berlin drew at home and lost away, while Schalke drew at home and lost away, and neither has won in the league this season. The market still prices Union Berlin as the more likely winner, but the form table offers no clear momentum edge to either side.
Scoring Profile
SEASON 26/27 · 3 GPUNI play at home, SCH away — the “Home/Away” rows use that split.
Attack
Union Berlin's home scoring rate of 3.0 goals per match dwarfs Schalke's away rate of 0.0, though both figures come from a single match each. Union Berlin have scored in all three of their home matches across all competitions this season, while Schalke have failed to score in both of their away league matches. The home side's attack looks the more reliable, but the sample is tiny.
Defense
Union Berlin concede 3.0 goals per home match, while Schalke concede 3.0 per away match, leaving both defences equally porous in their relevant venues. Union Berlin have no clean sheets in three home matches, and Schalke have one clean sheet in six away matches. Neither side offers much defensive solidity, making goals likely at both ends.

Performance Metrics
SEASON 26/27 · 3 GPUnion Berlin average 5.5 shots on target per game compared to Schalke's 3.0, and Union Berlin also see more of their shots blocked at 1.5 per game versus 1.0 for Schalke. The home side works the opposing goalkeeper harder, but the gap is built on just two matches of data. Schalke's lower shot volume reflects their struggles to create chances.
Goals & Timing
SEASON 26/27 · 3 GPUnion Berlin's peak conceding window is the opening 15 minutes, where they have shipped 43% of their goals against, and it is their only unique peak. Schalke have yet to score in the league this season, so their attacking timing offers no signal. The early phase looks the most dangerous for Union Berlin's defence.

About The Match
Two winless sides meet with the market narrowly favouring Union Berlin at 41% to win. The home side's matches have been far more open, with Union Berlin's two league games averaging 5.0 combined goals compared to 1.5 for Schalke, but that gap rests on just two matches each. The key uncertainty is whether Schalke can score at all, having failed to score in four of their last five matches and in both league games this season.
Head-to-Head · LAST 7 MEETINGS
Across seven meetings, Union Berlin have won twice, Schalke once, and four have been drawn, with both teams scoring in 71.4% of those games. The most recent meeting ended 0-0 in February 2023, and Schalke have not beaten Union Berlin in their last five meetings. History points to a tight, low-scoring contest, but the sample is small and spans several seasons.
