Borussia Moenchengladbach vs Bayer Leverkusen Prediction
Borussia Moenchengladbach Form
Borussia Moenchengladbach delivered a bit of everything as their last three matches resulted in a win, a loss and a draw. An encounter with Eintracht Frankfurt brought a 1-1 draw, which was followed by a 4-0 defeat at the hands of VfB Stuttgart. Their most recent game had them back on the winning trail, as they beat Erzgebirge Aue by 1-3. Borussia Moenchengladbach claimed just a single measly home win from a possible six in the Bundesliga, which also saw them drawing three and losing two matches, in which they scored ten and conceded 11 goals.
A runners-up spot is the absolute minimum Bayer Leverkusen should achieve for a season in which a tilt at league glory is their top priority.
Bayer Leverkusen Form
Bayer Leverkusen have been all over in their last three matches across all tournaments. Against Atalanta, they came out empty-handed in a 3-0 defeat, whereafter they avenged themselves in a 0-1 win against Kaiserslautern. Their latest match saw them sharing the spoils in a 2-2 draw against VfB Stuttgart. Bayer Leverkusen picked up five wins from a possible six on their recent travels in the Bundesliga, while scoring 17 and conceding four goals. They also drew once but remained without defeat.
Anything lower than at least a second place finish would probably be considered a disappointment for Bayer Leverkusen, as they look to build a title challenge.
Bayer Leverkusen are on the look-out for a win, and we expect them to claim it in a high scoring match, when they visit Borussia Moenchengladbach at Borussia-Park on Friday.
