On Saturday afternoon, Borussia Monchengladbach and Borussia Dortmund do battle at Borussia Park in the Bundesliga.
Monchengladbach ended a four-game winless runThe Foals’ recent Bundesliga form has been mixed. A 3-1 win at Wolfsburg in their last away game was their first in the German top-flight in five games. However, on the flip side, they have also lost just once in the last six Bundesliga games.
Their recent league games have been high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in three of the last four Bundesliga matches.
Gladbach are currently in 11th place in the German top flight, eight points clear of the Bundesliga’s bottom three.
Monchengladbach has struggled for home form in the Bundesliga lately, winning just one of their last five games.
Gerardo Seoane’s team has been prolific on home soil in the German top flight lately, with over 2.5 goals scored in ten of their previous 11 home matches.
Dortmund looking to bounce back after Stuttgart blowBVB suffered a 1-0 home defeat by Stuttgart last time out, which ended a four-game winning run in the Bundesliga for Edin Terzic’s team.
The defeat against Die Roten, coupled with a win for rivals RB Leipzig, saw Dortmund fall to fifth place behind Marco Rose’s fourth-place team on goal difference.
Despite the defeat in their last Bundesliga outing, Dortmund have been relatively prolific, scoring at least two goals in five of their last six matches in the German top flight.
The visitors are nine games unbeaten on their travels, having won five of their last seven away matches in the Bundesliga. BVB have been highly potent in attack on their Bundesliga travels, having scored at least two goals in all five of the recent away wins.
What am I backing?Monchengladbach has not been great on home soil lately, while Dortmund is strong on their travels. I fancy BVB to bounce back from the Stuttgart defeat by winning this clash.
