Bayer Leverkusen Eye 'Immortality' As Union Berlin Fight For Final Day Survival

Champions Bayer Leverkusen chase "immortality" in the shape of an undefeated Bundesliga season on Saturday as relegation-threatened Union Berlin face a last-day battle for survival. Xabi Alonso's Leverkusen can become the first team in Bundesliga history to go through a campaign unbeaten by avoiding defeat against Augsburg. Not even the greatest Bayern Munich sides have managed an invincible season. That Alonso's men have done it without losing in any competition -- a European record 50-game streak which includes runs to next week's German Cup and Europa League finals -- shows how incredible they have been.

Alonso's league champions are just one game away from the first unbeaten Bundesliga season and three games from a remarkable treble.
