Borussia Monchengladbach
In the last round, the team drew with Borussia Dortmund (1-1). Gerardo Seoane's side has lost only once in their last seven Bundesliga matches (3 wins, 3 draws). The club is in 11th place in the standings, just three points away from the European competition zone.

- The team has not conceded more than one goal in 4 of their last 5 matches at Borussia-Park in this tournament.
Holstein Kiel
In Matchday 13, the team lost to Leipzig (0-2). This result extended Marcel Rapp's side's losing streak to four matches in the championship. The club is in 17th place in the standings, five points away from the playoff zone. Notably, Holstein has yet to win an away game in the 2024/25 Bundesliga (2 draws, 4 losses).
- The team conceded first in 5 of their last 6 away matches in the championship.
- At least three goals were scored in Holstein's last 6 away games in this tournament.
- The club conceded at least two goals in their last 6 away matches in the Bundesliga.
Borussia Monchengladbach vs. Holstein Kiel: Match Prediction
Gerardo Seoane's side plays attacking football at home – the club has scored 14 goals in 7 games at their stadium in the current championship. The defense is weaker – the team has already conceded 10 goals over the same period. As a result, the "Both Teams to Score – Yes" bet has won in 6 of Borussia's last 8 home matches in the Bundesliga.
Holstein does not sit back in their half during away matches in the championship – the club has scored in their last 6 away games in this tournament. However, Marcel Rapp's side's defense has been unreliable in away games – the team has conceded in their last 6 matches.
I anticipate that we will see goals from both teams in the upcoming match. My prediction: Both Teams to Score – Yes
