For the Köpenicker, the final day of last season was all about everything. The Capital Club welcomed RB Leipzig and won the game with 2:1. The threesome was extremely important, as at the same time Mönchengladbach won in Bremen and the Berliners would have overtaken if they had not won. Against the favourites from Saxony it went goalless into the half and then from Berlin’s point of view with the 0:1 deficit Kluivert went off very badly (55.). But it didn’t take long for the home team to come 1:1 through Frederick (67th). In the follow-up period, the entire forestery cheered – 2:1 Kruse (92.). Union thus qualified for the European Cup for the first time in the history of the club.
The Fischer-Elf had a reasonably good season end with only two defeats from the last eight games, with three wins and three draws. With only one home defeat (eight wins, eight draws), the Iron League were sixth in the home table and have been undefeated for 16 home appearances. The last three games in their own stadium were victorious – Stuttgart (2:1), Bremen (3:1), Leipzig (2:1).
The season opener on the weekend succeeded with a narrow 1-0 victory in the DFB Cup at the third division Türkgücü Munich.
Union will have to give up some players due to injuries against Leverkusen – Mathis Bruns, Sebastian Griesbeck, Grischa Prömel, Leon Dajaku, Sheraldo Becker and Fabio Schneider will be absent.

Gerardo Seoane is the new coach under the Bayer cross and was not yet on the bench in the last game of the season. The last league game was still under the direction of Hannes Wolf, who could no longer coach his team to win against Borussia Dortmund. BVB won the home game 3-1. Haaland (5th, 84th) and Reus (51st) scored the goals for the Black and Yellow. The Rhinelanders scored in the last minute by L. Bender (90th). For the table constellation, however, the result was of secondary importance, because for B04 it was neither up nor down.
The Seoane team has only won one of the last five league games and has lost twice in this period. The only victory was against Eintracht Frankfurt (3:1) on the 31st day of the season. Bayer has been waiting for five games away for a triple point win (three defeats, two draws). Leverkusen could be satisfied with the offensive in the foreign country (34 goals). Only three teams played even more often. After 34 matchdays, Leverkusen was secure in the rear overall (39 goals conceded) – third best defense in the upper house.
Bayer 04 also showed no nakedness in the first round of the cup and did justice to the favourite role in the fourth division club Lok Leipzig with a 3-0 victory.
Timothy Fosu-Mensah, Edmond Tapsoba, Karim Bellarabi, Lucas Alario and Mitchel Bakker are out of the capital due to injury.

A balanced duel is to be expected between Union Berlin and Bayer Leverkusen. Already last season both teams were close to each other and are now playing in the European Cup. The home strength of the past season (undefeated at home for 16 games) clearly speaks for the Iron League. The Werkself lost a better finishing position with three winless games on the last three days and was just weak away (last five times in a row without a threesome). The daily form will decide this duel at the Alte Försterei. We’re guessing a scoring draw.
