A Bundesliga meeting between Bayern München (1st, 3 pts) and Union Berlin (8th, 1 pts). Two sides with their own objectives and plenty to play for.
Season-long, Bayern München average 3.0 points per game compared to Union Berlin's 1.0. that gap in consistency is hard to ignore. Both sides are prolific in front of goal. Bayern München average 5.0 per game and Union Berlin chip in with 3.0. Expect an open, attacking contest. One thing to keep in mind about Bayern München. They're scoring 5.0 goals per game but the quality of chances they create only works out at 3.0. Scoring that much more than the chances suggest (+0.4), that kind of hot finishing usually cools off, so their results may be flattering their actual play. The gap in chance quality is clear: Bayern München come out at +1.3 a game (chances they create minus chances they give up) compared to -0.5. that's a real edge in the quality of chances.
xG explained: Expected Goals measures chance quality. 1.5 xG = a side typically converts those chances into 1.5 goals. Outscoring xG = running hot, possible regression risk.
