On Saturday afternoon, Union Berlin and Monchengladbach go head-to-head at the Stadion An der Alten Forsterei as the home team desperately looks for a rare Bundesliga victory.
Union Berlin form guideUnion saw last weekend’s game against reigning champions Bayern Munich called off due to a snowstorm.
The home team’s poor form continued last time out with a 1-1 draw against Sporting Braga in the Europa League. The game means that they are winless in their previous 16 games in all competitions.
Their poor form has seen them drop to the bottom of the table, two points adrift of the relegation play-off spot.
Union are winless in their previous five home games in the German top-flight. A 1-1 home draw against Augsburg ended a four-game losing streak on home soil.
They have also conceded at least two goals in four of their last five home matches in the Bundesliga.
Monchengladbach form guideThe Foals' recent form has been inconsistent, as they have won just two of their previous five games over 90 minutes. Last time out, Monchengladbach recorded a 1-0 extra-time home win over Wolfsburg in the DFB Pokal.
Gerardo Seoane’s team's recent league form has been the definition of inconsistent, as they have won two, drawn two and lost two of their last six matches in the Bundesliga.
What has been consistent for the Foals in the German top flight has been high-scoring matches, as there have been over 2.5 goals scored in their last eight games in the Bundesliga.
Monchengladbach have struggled for wins on their travels in the league, winning one of their last 14 away games, including failing to win in three Bundesliga games on the road.
What am I backing?Both teams are in unconvincing form. However, the bet I am backing is over 2.5 goals scored, as both teams have been involved in high-scoring games.
