Borussia Monchengladbach vs. RB Leipzig: Match Prediction
With the arrival of spring, Gladbach has shown excellent scoring form: in three league matches, the team has scored 8 goals. However, Borussia's opponents have also contributed to this goal fest. Heidenheim and Werder are among the four worst clubs in terms of goals conceded, and Seoane's side scored seven goals against these teams. Nevertheless, at home, Gladbach has not scored more than once in 5 of their last 7 Bundesliga games. They will also have to play without their top scorer, who was sent off in the last round.
Leipzig's last three away league matches ended in 0-0 draws. Solid defense has been a hallmark for Marco Rose's side throughout the season, but the club currently faces issues in attack. The team has not scored more than one goal in 5 of their last 6 away matches in this tournament.
Additionally, in the last five league meetings between these teams, there have not been more than three goals. This is another factor supporting the prediction: Total under 3.5 goals
