B. Monchengladbach vs Union Berlin Prediction 28 Sep 2024

⚽ Bundesliga - Round 5 Preview

📅 28 Sep 2024

⏰ 14:30 GMT +1

🏟 Borussia-Park (Mönchengladbach)

Borussia Mönchengladbach's tough start to the season has continued, with a 2-0 loss to Eintracht Frankfurt marking their third defeat in four league games (W1). Defensive struggles have plagued them, as they’ve conceded two or more goals in each of their losses. To compound their troubles, two of those defeats came at home, extending their winless run at Borussia-Park to seven matches (D3, L4). Their upcoming clash with a strong Union Berlin side seems daunting, especially given their poor recent head-to-head record, including a goalless draw last season as part of an eight-match winless streak against the visitors (D3, L5).

Union Berlin, on the other hand, have dominated this matchup, winning five of the last six H2H meetings (D1). They’ve also performed well at Borussia-Park, conceding just one goal in their last three visits (W2, D1). Union remains unbeaten after four matchdays this season (W2, D2), bolstered by a much-improved defense that has conceded only two goals, the joint-lowest in the league. Their ability to keep clean sheets has been key, and they’ll look to maintain that defensive solidity here.
