BERLIN (Reuters) - RB Leipzig will have their backs to the wall in Saturday's Bundesliga game against in-form Union Berlin after picking up just two points from their two games so far.

Last season's German Cup winners, who have again qualified for the Champions League group stage after a fourth-place finish, had expected a faster start. Instead, they have now drawn their two league games after losing the German Super Cup to Bayern Munich last month.
