Borussia Monchengladbach vs Wolfsburg Predictions

• Wolfsburg have won five of their last seven Bundesliga road trips.
• Both teams have scored in five of the last seven Bundesliga meetings between these sides.
• Monchengladbach have failed to win five of their last six home games.

European dreams live on for Wolfsburg

The trio of Bundesliga games on Sunday kicks off with an intriguing clash between Borussia Monchengladbach and Wolfsburg, two sides separated by seven points but only one place ahead of the round. The Foals are enduring their longest winless run under Daniel Farke (D3, L2) and they may find it difficult to really get going, with their hunt for Europe pretty much dead in the water.

Although they’re just one place above their hosts, Wolfsburg began the round just two points shy of the European places and could sneak in depending on results elsewhere if they manage to notch a win here. That’s been made possible by their current five-game unbeaten run and they’ve shown brilliant character when coming from behind to draw twice during that sequence.

Only Bayern and Dortmund had picked up more away points than Wolfsburg before a ball was kicked this weekend and that incredible travelling record is a direct consequence of their rock-solid backline. No side has shipped fewer than their 12 away league goals whilst one more clean sheet would be the first time they’ve ever kept four straight away clean sheets in the top-flight.

Back the Wolves to bare their teeth

We’re sticking with Wolfsburg to widen the gap between the clubs here for our main selection. However, we’re going for a 2-1 pick in the correct score market as whilst Wolfsburg are on the brink of history with their clean sheets, they should face a stern defensive test against the likes of Gladbach’s Marcus Thuram, who scored a brace in the reverse fixture.
