Wolfsburg vs Borussia M’gladbach Live Stats & Betting Odds
Wolfsburg Prediction – Can Wolfsburg pull out of poor sequence?
The hosts have really struggled in recent weeks in the Bundesliga as Wolfsburg have lost 4 of their last 5 matches in an inexplicable sudden slump in form with losses to Borussia Dortmund, Bayer Leverkusen, Werder Bremen and Freiburg which has prevented Sunday’s hosts from climbing higher up the German top flight ladder.
Admittedly, three of these four defeats were against teams sitting in the top seven of the Bundesliga, but prior to this losing stretch, Wolfsburg had put together a 10-match unbeaten run in the German top flight and seemed to be heading for a top six berth.
Wolfsburg have grabbed just 1 win out of these last 5 matches with a 2-0 win away at Eintracht Frankfurt, but the hosts have suffered back-to-back defeats at home in recent matches at their VOLKSWAGEN ARENA and today’s clash doesn’t get any easier with the visit of 2nd placed Borussia Moenchengladbach.
Inconsistent results at home this season have resulted in an indifferent home record to date of 2-3-2 7/8 and with just 1 home win out of their last 6 matches, the hosts look to have their work cut out here if they’re to get anything out of this encounter.
M’gladbach Prediction – Can ‘Gladbach return to top?
Title rivals, RB Leipzig, moved to the top of the Bundesliga following their resounding 3-0 win away at Fortuna Dusseldorf, but Borussia Moenchengladbach have a chance to return to the top and replace Leipzig if they manage to take all three points at Wolfsburg this Sunday.
In contrast to Wolfsburg’s 4 defeats from the last 5 matches, Gladbach have won 5 of their last 6 matches overall in the German top flight having registered wins against Eintracht Frankfurt, Bayer Leverkusen, Werder Bremen, Freiburg and Bayern Munich, and these recent spate of victories will no doubt give the visitors plenty of confidence and belief in getting a result at the VOLKSWAGEN ARENA.
Form away from home has also been reasonable enough as Gladbach’s away record indicates with stats of 4-0-2 9/5 so far this season on the road although they have lost 2 of their last 3 matches with losses at Borussia Dortmund and a surprising 2-0 loss at Union Berlin.
Gladbach manager, Marco Rose, has an array of attacking options up his sleeve though with the likes of forwards Thuram (6 goals), Herrmann and Embolo (5 goals apiece) and Plea (4 goals) at his disposal.
Key-Facts – Wolfsburg vs Borussia M’gladbach
- Wolfsburg have lost 4 of their last 5 matches in the Bundesliga
- Gladbach have won 4 of their 6 away matches so far this season
- Gladbach possess the best defensive record away from home in the Bundesliga
Betting Tips Verdict
Given Wolfsburg’s recent losing streak, the hosts may find this Gladbach defence a tough nut to crack so the visitors look good for at least a point here.
