Monchengladbach to enhance European hopes
On Friday night, Monchengladbach host Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga, as the home side attempts to make up ground on the top-six.
Gladbach heads into this game on the back of a 1-0 win at Hannover, which brought to an end a four-game losing streak for the home side. The losing run has seen Dieter Hecking’s side drop down to seventh place in the Bundesliga, four points behind sixth-place RB Leipzig.
However, the race for the European spots in the Bundesliga is still very much on, with even the top-four within touching distance for the home side.
Gladbach’s recent games in the Bundesliga have been tight, as their last six games in the German top-flight have produced under 2.5 goals. Hecking’s side have had a problem scoring goals, as they have failed to score in four of their last five league games.
The home side have suffered consecutive home defeats in the Bundesliga against RB Leipzig, and Dortmund in their last home game. Prior to those defeats, they were unbeaten in five league games on home soil.
Werder Bremen are currently 14th place in the Bundesliga table, just two points clear of the league’s relegation zone. However, the visitor's form has improved of late, as they have won three of their last four games in the German top-flight, including last time out when they defeated Hamburg 1-0.
Werder’s recent away record in the Bundesliga is not great, as they have won just two of their last 14 games on their travels in the German top-flight. They have also suffered defeat in five of their last seven away games in the Bundesliga.
Their recent away games in the Bundesliga have been low scoring, with eight of their last 12 outings on their travels producing under 2.5 goals.
Forebet predicts that Gladbach will record a victory to enhance their chances of claiming a European spot while leaving Werder looking nervously over their shoulders at the relegation zone.
