After three recent defeats, Leipzig coach Rose makes a change of goalkeeper. The defense must also be changed.

RB Leipzig's head coach Marco Rose will be looking for a new starter against 1. FC Union Berlin. For the first time this Bundesliga season, Peter Gulacsi will be back in goal for the German cup winners. After a long injury layoff, defender Willi Orban is also set to make his comeback this Sunday (17:30/DAZN). "We are changing because we see the overall situation. We want to provide new impetus," said Rose. The final training session should show how many minutes captain Orban will be able to play. Union are something of a fearful opponent for the Saxons. RB did manage to end the Union curse with a 3-0 win at the Alte Försterei last September. Before that, however, there were five 2-1 defeats in a row.
