Slavia currently have 7 points, Union 6. The winner takes all and advances, the Red and Whites only need a draw. Slavia dominated the first leg, but the match was a bit distorted by a red card given to Jaeckel in the 40th minute.

Even in ten minutes, Berlin equalized to 1:1, but Kuchta and Schranz took the lead in the 84th and 88th minutes. At the weekend, both teams won their league matches, Slavia won 1:0 in Olomouc, while Union overcame Leipzig 2:1 to move up to sixth place in the Bundesliga.
