RB Leipzig v Union Berlin Tonight Premier Sports 2 7.45pm

[Galstonian Oranje]

Semi final of the German Cup. Will be a good watch to see what we're up against

 

[Deek]

Mon the Union (Bears)

 

[jigster]

Dortmund beat Union Berlin 3-0 away from the sunday before we played our 1st leg in Germany

To be fair dortmund can do that to anyone. Well almost anyone

 

[cooprfc]

How strong have Leipzig went with their lineup? Anyone know?

 

[giogaddi]

Nkunku starts. Be a real shame if he picked up an injury.

 

[Main Stand]

How strong have Leipzig went with their lineup? Anyone know?

Pretty much their first 11

That’s the hope I would hope ( not one for that type of thing but every little helps )

 

[Bearsden Bear]

Just away to watch this live in Florida.

 

[Fraser]

Channel?

[cooprfc]

Just away to watch this live in Florida.

It's in Germany mate.

You can watch it for free on the OneFootball app.

Just away to watch this live in Florida.

Is there nowhere a wee bit closer to Bearsden?

 

[The Pontiac Bandit]

Leipzeg not been great so far but they do have an impressive squad.

 

[Galstonian Oranje]

Whats with the lines in the centre circle?

 

[Somemightsay]

Whats with the lines in the centre circle?

Peace.

 

[SpandauBear]

Pretty much their first 11

Let's hope they get mentally and physically fatigued with the games coming thick and fast.

 

[Fitba*Daft]

Is Kyogo playing for Leipzig?

 

[cooprfc]

Same conclusion as the Atalanta game for me- they give up a lot of chances in the space behind their wingbacks. Tav and Kent could be key here.

 

[The Pontiac Bandit]

One nil UB.

Deserved imo

 

[Galstonian Oranje]

Was that the full back coming in at the back post?

Edit. Midfielder. But cross from out wide un marked at the back post.

 

[devilman]

Hate saying it but would be good if they 1. get run ragged and 2. pick up a few niggling injuries.

 

[Somemightsay]

Leipzig have done nothing here.

I rarely watch them but it looks like they don’t really give a shit about this game.

They've just conceded a goal which shows this.

 

[Fitba*Daft]

That was a well taken goal.

 

[chucknorris]

Leipzig have done nothing here.

I rarely watch them but it looks like they don’t really give a shit about this game.

I watched the 1st half of them v Leverkusen at the weekend and switched it off, boring as %^*&

 

[DuntocherBear]

That goal came from a tav type cross across the face, they are sloppy too. Chances for Kent etc

 

[nelster]

Soon be us bouncing in there

 

[Otto Bear]

I’ve not watched them at all but watching this game just now. They play much like Dortmund, very slow paced. If we come out at them fast and get in their faces then we can get at them I think.

 

[sw26]

Not even watching but absolutely confident in suggesting we are Seville-bound lads.

 

[nelster]

Leipzig bear no resemblance to the Atalanta match I watched.

Leggy. Lazy.

 

[MaxiMols12]

Whats with the lines in the centre circle?

Mercedes

 

[SSR]

U Berlin the better side so far.


Leipzig just missed a sitter though

 

[murdoch5]

How tf did leipzig miss that. Sitter

 

[Jan Wyck]

UB fans owning the stadium.

Same again on Thursday.

 

[DuntocherBear]

Should be 1-1, some nice 1-2's there

 

[The Pontiac Bandit]

I’ve not watched them at all but watching this game just now. They play much like Dortmund, very slow paced. If we come out at them fast and get in their faces then we can get at them I think.

Very similar.

Good going forward but can be got at at the back.

 

[broxi87]

I wonder if Red Star fans watched us at Dens and thought , "this will be an easy night "!

 

[DuntocherBear]

Anyone else have the tedescos tiling song in their head when they mention leipzig's manager

 

[Bazza1985]

For those without premier sports, it's also on a score app called "one football" for free

 

[Samod85]

They are capable of one touch quick passing in tight spaces which can be very difficult to defend against . Seen it once or twice so far but otherwise look quite laboured

 

[Galstonian Oranje]

On tonight's evidence, if we play anywhere near like we did away v Dortmund then we have a very good chance.

 

[Blair1310]

Hate saying it but would be good if they 1. get run ragged and 2. pick up a few niggling injuries.

Hate saying it? I love saying it. I hope they get 11 hammy strains.

They have their first choice centre backs and also a midfielder out through suspension. I’d imagine with their type of budget the replacements will be quality, but every little helps!

 

[blueismycolour]

I watched the 1st half of them v Leverkusen at the weekend and switched it off, boring as %^*&

Aye, did the same. A good team without a doubt, but very much beatable if we apply ourselves in the same manner we have in other Europa games this season.

 

[Galstonian Oranje]

The Famous gets a mention

 

[stein and johnston]

I take it we’ll have someone from the club over there tonight.?

 

[cooprfc]

Hopefully it's someone with Covid.

Just a joke in poor taste before anyone moans.
