Prediction

  • Gladbach have improved of late, but will rue spurning a league-high 18 points from winning positions already this season.
  • Borussia Dortmund were mightily impressive in their last away win in Leipzig, in between two particularly turgid away defeats, leaving them a distant 10 points behind Bayern.
  • Back Gladbach to get the job done comfortably on home soil, making Borussia Dortmund ever keener to lure Marco Rose to take over as next head coach.
