Holstein Kiel must start picking up points to avoid relegation from the Bundesliga, beginning on Sunday away from home against Union Berlin at Stadion An der Alten Forsterei.
Union are in 13th place with 24 points but were thrashedthrashed 6-0 by Borussia Dortmund on February 22, while the visitors were defeated 2-0 on the same day by Bayer Leverkusen and are last in 18th place with just 13 points.
We say: Union Berlin 1-1 Holstein Kiel
Holstein must start collecting points if they are to give themselves any chance of avoiding the drop, but they could leave themselves vulnerable at the back if they push forward too quickly.
However, Union could prove to be defensively frail themselves considering their poor record in recent weeks, and it would not be surprising if both teams scored.

Freiburg will hope to keep their place in the top four in the Bundesliga when they travel to WWK Arena on Sunday to play Augsburg.
Augsburg are 11th with 31 points and overcame Borussia Monchengladbach 3-0 on February 22, while their opponents emerged as 5-0 victors on February 21 against Werder Bremen and are in fourth place with 39 points.
We say: Augsburg 0-2 Freiburg
Freiburg have been excellent from a defensive perspective, and it is difficult to see them conceding many chances on Sunday.
If Augsburg fall behind, they may find it hard to get back into the game given their offensive struggles of late.
