Borussia Monchengladbach host rock-bottomed Paderborn with a busy and disappointing week behind them, as they saw Istanbul Basaksehir (1-2) snatch all three points through a last-gasp winner which knocked them out of the Europa League and dropped the points at Wolfsburg (2-1) in a similar fashion over the weekend.
Foals thus dropped the top spot and now sit two points behind RB Leipzig, with Borussia Dortmund, Schalke, and Bayern Munich all still breathing down their necks. They will now have a lot to prove and we should still see them motivated to shine in front of the home fans, where they’ve been very convincing since September.
Paderborn have found their goalscoring form lately and they’ve been able to capitalize too, finally bagging points as they held off Borussia Dortmund (3-3) and Union Berlin (1-1) in four outings since the November International break, while also beating Werder Bremen (0-1) and suffering a thriller loss to RB Leipzig (2-3) along the way.
Steffen Baumgart will now hope his men can take confidence from such displays and they’ll surely be looking for an upset here as well, with an obvious need for points as they sit five behind 15th placed Werder Bremen – who felt out of reach just weeks ago. This promises just as much of an exciting game of football and we hope to see it deliver.
We will still back Borussia Monchengladbach to win but we hope for a tough challenge from the visitors and we’re going for a Home win and a Yes on Both teams to score, which comes at 6/5 with bet365 and feels well worth of sticking our necks out for.
With that in mind, it’s rather easy to make a case for another high-scoring occasion and Borussia-Park. Still, we’re hoping not to see too many and we’re backing Under 4.5 Goals FT as a real banker bet at 1/2 with William Hill – which would be the tenth such occasion in 11 games for Borussia and eighth in ten for Paderborn.
