Borussia Monchengladbach vs Borussia Dortmund Predictions

• Borussia Dortmund have lost just one away Bundesliga match this season.
• Ten of Borussia Monchengladbach’s last 11 home league games have featured at least three goals.
• Both teams have scored in four of the last six meetings.

Dortmund in a top-four dogfight

Unbeaten leaders Bayer Leverkusen are the only Bundesliga team to have lost fewer league matches that Borussia Dortmund, so it is a bit of a surprise to see BvB fighting it out just to earn a top-four slot this season.

They claimed a 2-0 victory at Bayern Munich in their last away game and then went and lost at home to Stuttgart, but they are moving in the right direction and should be fully focused on what looks a straight battle with RB Leipzig for the final Champions League qualification spot.

And their away form suggests they should be able to take three valuable points at Borussia Monchengladbach and it is their defensive strength that provides cause for confidence.

Home defending a worry for Gladbach

Dortmund have conceded just two goal in their last eight away matches and that is bad news for Monchengladbach, who have won just two of their last 11 Bundesliga outings.

It has to be a concern that they have conceded eight goals in their last three league games on their own patch, which included a 3-0 defeat to Freiburg the least time they were in action at Borussia-Park, so expect Dortmund to take the points and give themselves a lift in their last away outing before a crunch clash in Leipzig in a fortnight.

Just one of Monchengladbach’s last 11 home games has failed to generate at least three goals, so with that in mind, a 2-1 away win could be the way to go for those looking for a correct-score interest.
