Borussia M. need to make up a 32_BEHIND_LEADER-point difference if they wish to reach the table leaders and secure a Champions League qualification. Though the season is far from over and their odds of taking three more points this Saturday are decent, they’ll need to work hard to get there.

The two teams already met this season in the Bundesliga, with Borussia M'Gladbach taking the victory. It’s understandable why most bookies consider them the favourites, though the advantage is not overwhelming.

To make things even more difficult for the visitors, they’ve had an unfortunate run of injuries recently. Sebastiaan Bornauw, Florian Kainz, Sebastian Andersson have all been put out of contention, leaving the team’s coach with a more limited set of options at his disposal.
