1. FC Union Berlin wants to build on its good start in the Bundesliga. Coach Bo Svensson believes the still undefeated Irons will face a difficult task against TSG 1899 Hoffenheim, who have recently been beaten twice, on Saturday (3.30 p.m./Sky) in the stadium at the old forestry. The Kraichgau team should not be underestimated, warned the Dane.
“It will be a difficult game, we have to focus on ourselves,” he said. With only one goal conceded in the three games so far, Union has the best record of all Bundesliga teams. However, they have only scored two goals themselves so far.
Rönnow’s anniversary
Svensson, who missed the 0-0 draw with RB Leipzig due to an infection, does not have to make any major changes to his team. Jordan is likely to play as a striker again. Captain Christopher Trimmel would be an alternative to Janik Haberer on the right wing. Goalkeeper Frederik Rönnow is about to make his 100th competitive appearance for the Köpenickers.
