- Kickoff: 16:30 UK / 17:30 CET
- Venue: Borussia-Park (Mönchengladbach)
Borussia Mönchengladbach's results in the Bundesliga have constantly declined. Last year, they finished 14th, which was their worst finish in over a decade. This year, "The Prussians" are doing much better as they are occupying 9th place. They won 14 points in 10 rounds, which is about 0.4 points per game more than last year. Right now, they are only three points away from fourth place, which leads to the Champions League. While the CL may be an unrealistic goal, reaching Europe seems like a real possibility.
St. Pauli returned to the Bundesliga after 13 years in the 2. Bundesliga. Their only goal this year is to somehow secure survival. Currently, that survival looks pretty challenging as they are in 16th place with eight points in ten rounds. Still, they are just one point away from the safe zone but will have a really tough schedule. So grabbing that safe zone won't be an easy task, at least in the upcoming games.
Borussia Mönchengladbach vs St. Pauli pick: Borussia Mönchengladbach to win
Borussia Mönchengladbach are in good form. Their only loss in the last six games was against Eintracht Frankfurt in the Cup in a very close match. At home, they were impressive, winning three in a row against better teams than St. Pauli.
Meanwhile, St. Pauli did not show much this season. They lost six out of ten games and scored only seven goals - 0.7 per game. So, even scoring a goal here might be a challenge.
Simply put, we believe that Borussia Mönchengladbach is a better team, in better form, and combined with a home pitch advantage, we expect them to win the upcoming Bundesliga match.
