On Saturday afternoon, Monchengladbach and Koln meet at Borussia Park in a Rhineland Bundesliga derby as both teams look for a change in fortunes.
Monchengladbach lacking in wins of lateThe Foals have found Bundesliga wins hard to come by of late, as they have won just once in their last seven matches in the German top flight.
However, a 1-1 draw at Mainz last time out means they have taken four points from their previous two league outings.
Their recent Bundesliga games have been relatively low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in three of their last four games.
Monchengladbach has been slightly inconsistent on home soil recently in the Bundesliga. However, they have suffered just one defeat in their last nine home games in the German top-flight.
The Foals’ recent league games on home soil have been high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in eight of their previous nine matches.
Koln hoping to end winless streakThe home team suffered a 2-0 home win against league leaders Bayer Leverkusen last time, extending their winless run to four games in the Bundesliga.
The match against Die Werkself also continued Koln's run of low-scoring games. Their last six league games have all produced under 2.5 goals.
The visitor’s recent poor run of league form has Koln in 16th place in the table, eight points adrift of the safety of 15th.
Koln are currently on a five-game winless streak on their travels in the Bundesliga, although their last three league matches away from home have all produced draws.
Their recent away matches in the German top flight have been low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in their last seven Bundesliga games on the road.
What am I backing?Monchengladbach’s form has recently improved, and the Foals are decent on home soil. The bet I am backing is a narrow home win.
