The ball was back in Leipzig’s court, and they responded well with substitute Christian Poulsen turning in [Marcel Halstenberg](https://www.bundesliga.com/en/bundesliga/player/marcel-halstenberg)’s cross, but the goal was ruled out for an earlier offside after a VAR check. [Robin Knoche](https://www.bundesliga.com/en/bundesliga/player/robin-knoche) took responsibility for reversing a trend of four penalties missed out of five so far this season, and struck the ball sweetly straight down the middle. A teasing free-kick was turned behind by Blaswich, who refused to be surprised at his near post, but the whole stadium was subsequently stunned by the way in which The Red Bull Arena was already bouncing as the teams emerged for kick-off, but the early exchanges did not quite hit the heights of the pre-match entertainment, as caution crept in on both sides. With Bayern, Borussia Dortmund and Freiburg already triumphant on Matchday 20, the pressure was high on both teams to try to keep up with the pace at the top, but neither managed to meet their expectations in a cagey opening.

Get ready for an electrifying showdown in the 20th-round central match of the German championship as Leipzig gear up to take on the high-flying Union Berlin!

“Union have developed into a secure Bundesliga side and always make good decisions in the transfer market. But if Leipzig may not have their very best day in the end, that helps us too.” Union Berlin currently have five wins in a row in all competitions. The hosts are clearly stronger in terms of names, but the losses due to injuries to Christopher Nkunku and To call Leipzig a defensive team is impossible, the Bulls score a lot and concede a lot in defense. Players of Union have only won yet in 2023. He is working hard on the pitch every day and doing everything he can in individual training. This season, the Bulls have scored 39 goals in the league, plus 13 in the Champions League. The 39 goals scored puts the Bulls among the top three attacking teams in the league. Some 7 years ago the Bulls played in the second strongest league in Germany, and now the team is one of the best clubs in Europe and a perennial contender for the title. The Red Bulls continue to contend even for the championship this season, despite the fact that at the moment they occupy only 4th place in the standings and 36 points under their belt. Either Union will remain their closest challenger, maintaining a 1-point deficit, or RB Leipzig, the most stable team in the Bundesliga after Rose’s appointment, will continue their incredible run, putting the throne at risk.
