Match of the Week Bundesliga: Financial head-to-head Union Berlin v Bayern Munich

David against Goliath, Union Berlin are considered a team that punch above its weight. After finishing in 5th place last season and neck on neck at the top this season, hopes will be high going into the match against Bayern.

Bayern Munich’s wage bill is 10 times higher than Union Berlin’s, which had the second-lowest wage bill in the Bundesliga in 2020/21.

Although the financial gap between the clubs is obvious, Union Berlin managed to draw in both matches with Bayern last season.
