Two sides that didn’t enjoy the best return to action following the international break will collide in the Bundesliga this weekend. Hoffenheim will be hoping for maximum points on the road against Borussia Monchengladbach, as they bid to move closer to the top four spots.
Bundesliga Preview
Hoffenheim will be delighted with the start that they have made to the Bundesliga season, as they currently sit sixth in the standings. The German side has won half of their 12 matches this term, and they have suffered just four defeats. However, they will need to rediscover their early season form this weekend if they are to close the gap on the top four.
Hoffenheim come into this match after failing to win in three Bundesliga matches, while they have landed just a single victory across their previous five. A return to winning ways would see them go level on points with RB Leipzig, while a defeat could see them drop to seventh in the standings. They took a point from their match against Mainz last weekend, with Robert Skov finding the net for Hoffenheim in that home fixture.
It continues to be a testing period for Borussia Monchengladbach, as the German giants sit in the bottom half of the standings. They have found wins incredibly hard to come by this term, as they have landed just three victories from their opening 12 matches. However, a second win in three matches could lift them into the top half.
Their form has improved in recent weeks, as they have now won two of their last four. However, a response will be needed this weekend after they allowed a 2-0 lead to slip against Borussia Dortmund in their previous match before falling to a 4-2 loss.
Borussia Monchengladbach vs Hoffenheim Head to Head
Gladbach boasts an excellent recent record against Hoffenheim, as they have won each of their previous three against their rivals. Over that period, Gladbach has scored 12 goals and conceded just three times. They landed a 3-1 win in this exact fixture last term.
Borussia Monchengladbach vs Hoffenheim Prediction
Gladbach’s dominant record in this fixture could be hard to overlook, and that is a key reason why we will be supporting them this weekend. However, both teams have scored in each of the last seven meetings between the sides, and that could be a trend to follow.
