THE PREDICTION

Confidence is no doubt coursing through the Borussia Monchengladbach camp right now following their memorable 1-2 win away at Bayern Munich last time out and they’ll be looking to back this up against a Bayer Leverkusen side without a win in their last four Bundesliga fixtures. However, the danger posed by the visitors going forward cannot be underestimated with Patrik Schick having already netted 17 league goals so far this season. Monchengladbach though, boast some serious firepower themselves scoring at least once in all but one of their most recent ten matches in all competitions. Therefore, a hugely attacking affair is to be expected in this one with both teams to score well worth backing.
