THE PREDICTION

Borussia Monchengladbach may have made it through to the Champions League last 16 but they are falling slightly short of expectations in the Bundesliga currently, sitting in eighth place. That said, they are still unbeaten at home in the league this season and fought back from 3-1 down to salvage a late point at Eintracht Frankfurt in midweek. As well as that, they have only failed to find the net in one of their last 16 league matches overall, and with the likes of Alassane Plea and Lars Stindl in good form, they are always an attacking threat. Similarly, Hoffenheim have struggled to replicate their European form domestically in the first half of this campaign but they have scored at least once in each of their last 13 away league outings, so Both Teams to Score looks the standout market here.
