Borussia Monchengladbach vs. Freiburg: Match Prediction
The current season has been challenging for Borussia Monchengladbach. The team is at the bottom of the standings and remains the only side without a win in the current Bundesliga season. Even at home, the club has struggled to achieve maximum results: Borussia has not won in their last six home league matches (2 draws, 4 losses). Moreover, in three of those encounters, the team conceded at least four goals.
Freiburg has gone three consecutive matches without defeat and is well-positioned to extend their positive run. Especially since the club feels confident on the road and often picks up points: in their last nine away Bundesliga matches, the team has lost only once (6 wins, 2 draws). Additionally, Freiburg has not lost in their last four head-to-head encounters at Borussia's home ground in the league (3 wins, 1 draw), conceding just one goal during this period.
I believe the visitors will at least avoid defeat in this match. My prediction: "Freiburg to win or draw"
* The starting lineup for each team is based on their previous match in this tournament.
