With a win against the championship runner-up Union would certainly be qualified, with a draw all victorious competitors could overtake, with Stuttgart (against Arminia Bielefeld) and Freiburg (at Eintracht Frankfurt) needing higher victories. “Such an opportunity doesn’t come up every year, that’s why we want to take advantage of it,” said Berlin’s captain Christopher Trimmel.
