On Saturday afternoon, Monchengladbach and Freiburg go head-to-head at Borussia Park in a midtable Bundesliga encounter.
Monchengladbach unbeaten in four gamesThe Foals extended their unbeaten run to four games in the Bundesliga with a 1-1 away draw at Heidenheim. However, the game saw Monchengladbach draw their third straight match in the German top flight.
The home team has also now won just once in their last nine matches in the Bundesliga.
The Foal's recent lack of results has left them in 12th place in the German top-flight table, nine points clear of the league’s bottom three.
Monchengladbach’s recent home form in the Bundesliga has been inconsistent, although they are unbeaten in their last three home league games.
Their recent home games in the German top flight have at least been high-scoring, as nine of their previous ten home games in the Bundesliga have produced over 2.5 goals.
Freiburg in need of a victory to revive their top-six bidThe team from the Black Forest have won just one of their last eight games in the Bundesliga. A 3-2 home defeat against Bayer Leverkusen last time out in the German top flight means they have lost five of the previous eight matches in the Bundesliga.
Freiburg’s recent poor form has hindered their chances of sealing a European spot. They are now seven points adrift of the Bundesliga’s top-six.
Christian Streich’s team has recently been involved in several high-scoring games in the German top flight. Their last nine Bundesliga games have produced over 2.5 goals.
Freiburg ended a four-game losing streak on their travels in the Bundesliga with a 2-1 win at Bochum. The game also ended a poor defensive run on the road, as they had conceded at least two goals in the previous four away games in the Bundesliga.
What am I backing?This game is a difficult one to judge. I believe this will be an entertaining and high-scoring game, so the bet I am backing is over 2.5 goals.
