Three corona cases at Union Berlin. The table leader has to do without head coach Urs Fischer for the time being. There were also positive corona tests for Timo Baumgartl and Tim Maciejewski.

As the irons further announced, all further tests of the team and the support staff were negative.

Union Berlin meets Malmö in the Europa League on Thursday (9 p.m.). The Irons will then travel to Stuttgart next Sunday and will meet VfB without a win on Matchday 9. The second Bundesliga away game in a row for the Irons after losing 2-0 in Frankfurt last Saturday.

It is still unclear how long Union will have to do without coaches Urs Fischer, Baumgartl and Maciejewski. In any case, they should still be missing at the home game on Thursday. After two bankruptcies at the start of the Europa League, the Irons are already under pressure against Malmö. The Swedes had also lost their first two games.
