Real Madrid weren't successful last season. They finished second in LaLiga, while being stopped in the Champions League semifinal. In the 2023/24 season, Real Madrid started with a perfect five wins from five matches. In the previous game, they won 2-1 at home against Real Sociedad. Guests had the lead at halftime, but the home side played much better in the second half, so Carlo Ancelotti's team recorded another win.
Union Berlin weren't a significant team until a few years ago. Still, they climbed gradually every year in German football and now will have a chance to debut in the Champions League at Santiago Bernabeu. This season, Union Berlin started with three wins in all competitions, but they finished pointless in the last two matches. In the previous game, Union Berlin lost 2-1 on the road against Wolfsburg. Guests were a better side as they had nine shots more on the goal, but eventually, Union Berlin stayed empty-handed.
Real Madrid vs Union Berlin pick: Over 2.5 goals
Real Madrid scored eight goals in the last four matches. Also, three of those four games went over 2.5 goals. On the other hand, we have seen at least three goals in every Union Berlin match this season. Over 2.5 goals seems to be the best bet for this tie.

Real Madrid team news
Injuries are something that have followed Real Madrid since the preseason. It is already known that Thibaut Courtois and Eder Militao are likely to miss almost the whole season.
Still, Vinicius Junior, Arda Guler, and Ferland Mendy are three more players who were unavailable in recent weeks.
But the good news for Real Madrid fans came a few days ago when Carlo Ancelotti announced that Mendy could be ready to play on Wednesday versus Union Berlin.
