Borussia Monchengladbach vs Union Berlin Prediction and Betting Tips | September 28th 2024

Borussia Monchengladbach play host to Union Berlin at Borussia Park in round five of German Bundesliga on Saturday. Bo Svensson’s men head into the weekend unbeaten in their last eight games against Monchengladbach and will look to extend this impressive four-year streak.

Borussia Monchengladbach continue to struggle for results in the new Bundesliga campaign and fell to a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Eintracht Frankfurt last Saturday.

Gerardo Seoane’s side have now lost three of their opening four matches, with a 2-0 victory over Bochum at the Vonovia Ruhrstadion on August 31 being the exception.

While Monchengladbach will look to find their feet this weekend, results have been hard to come by on home turf, where they have failed to win their last seven league games, claiming just three points from a possible 21 since February.

In contrast, Union Berlin maintained their fine start to the season as they picked up a 2-1 victory over Hoffenheim at the An der Alten Försterei last Saturday.

Svensson’s men have now gone unbeaten in their five games this season, claiming two draws and three wins, including a 1-0 victory over Greifswald in the DFB Pokal on August 17.

With eight points from four matches, Union Berlin are currently sixth in the Bundesliga standings, five points above Saturday’s hosts in 14th place.
