The staff for M Gladbach vs Union Berlin
Less prominent last year, former holders Strobl, Johnson, and Raffael left. Conversely, the Colts recruited right-back Scally (New York City) and were loaned Wolf (Leipzig) and Lazaro (Inter). Offensively, the French Thuram (10 goals, 8 assists) and Pléa (10 goals and 10 assists) will spearhead the attack of this team. Note that the Swiss international striker Embolo will always be on the flank, as will the potentially titular midfielder Benes and rookie Lazaro.
During the transfer window, Union Berlin separated from its titular goalkeeper Gikiewicz (Augsburg), its striker Polter (Fortuna Sittard), the important midfielder Kroos (Braunschweig), and the former Stéphane defender Subotic, who left for Turkey. Finally, the Swedish striker Andersson (12 goals last year) took the direction of Cologne and should be sorely missed by this team. Conversely, the club brought in players with a defensive vocation such as Griesbeck (Heidenheim), Giebelman (Fortuna Düsseldorf), Knoche (Wolfsburg), and goalkeeper Luthe (Augsburg). In addition, winger Marius Bülter (Magdeburg), former international striker Max Kruse and Japanese midfielder Endo have arrived. For this meeting, the important striker Ujah is out of form.
