There’s one match being played in the Bundesliga on Friday night with Borussia Moenchengladbach taking on RB Leipzig as the betting tips continue at the Stadion im BORUSSIA-PARK.
Moenchengladbach Prediction – Can Gladbach continue good start?
Despite having to face last season’s 3rd place finishers in the German Bundesliga on Friday night, Borussia Moenchengladbach will be in a confident frame of mind ahead of this clash having picked up 4 points from their first two league matches of the new campaign.
A 0-0 stalemate at home on the opening day of the season against Schalke 04 was swiftly followed by a resounding 3-1 win away from home at Mainz 05 and both of these encouraging results will serve as a timely boost ahead of this encounter with RB Leipzig.
‘Gladbach finished last season in 5th place in the German top flight with an overall home record of 9-3-5 31/22 which contributed to the hosts attaining a place in this season’s Europa League. However, Gladbach finished the season in poor fashion as they went without a home win in their last 9 matches at their Stadion im BORUSSIA-PARK.
Backing the hosts in the win markets may not be the best idea then, but 8 of Gladbach’s 17 home matches resulted in both teams scoring, while 4 of the 6 meetings between these two sides have also resulted in both teams hitting the back of the net.
RB Leipzig Prediction – Can Leipzig maintain 100% record?
As mentioned earlier, RB Leipzig finished in 3rd place at the end of last season’s Bundesliga campaign which saw the visitors achieve automatic qualification for this season’s Champions League, and they’ve made an excellent start to this new season too.
RB Leipzig have registered back-to-back wins against Union Berlin 4-0 away and a 2-1 home win against Eintracht Frankfurt to give the visitors a 100% winning record and the perfect start to this new campaign.
They also ended their season on a strong note, particularly away from home where they suffered just 1 defeat out of their final 10 matches on the road of the season, that being a 2-1 loss away at Werder Bremen, and they too had 8 of their 17 away matches resulting in both teams scoring.
The visitors also possess dangerous attacking front pair of Poulsen and Werner who contributed a total of 31 goals between them in last season’s successful campaign, and they’re likely to be a threat to Gladbach again on Friday night.
Key-Facts – Gladbach v RB Leipzig
- Gladbach are without a home win from their last 9 matches on home turf
- RB Leipzig have suffered just 1 defeat out of their final 10 matches on the road
- 4 of the 6 meetings between these two sides have resulted in both teams scoring
Betting Tips Verdict
