Borussia Dortmund vs Mönchengladbach Betting Tips

by JohnnyBet from

The ‘Borussia derby’ is one that attracts plenty of interest in Germany and beyond courtesy of the quality of the two teams on display, and they have a habit of serving up an outstanding feast of football: the last eight fixtures between these sides at the Westfalenstadion have finished 4-0, 1-0, 1-2, 5-0, 2-0, 4-1, 3-0 and 2-1, so there is very rarely a shortage of goals!

The difference this season is that Thomas Tuchel, a highly respected young coach, has as yet been unable to mould the yellow-and-blacks into a major force to challenge Bayern Munich’s dominance of the Bundesliga. With just five wins in ten league starts at the time of writing, Tuchel already has his work cut out in chasing down the Munich outfit at the summit of the division.

Borussia Monchengladbach worked wonders in qualifying for the Champions League last season, but unfortunately their European jaunt has turned rather sour. Just one win in four in the continent’s premier competition has been disappointing, and that lack of positive results has had a knock-on effect to their Bundesliga form as well. Just three wins in ten, as of November 15, identifies a talented side with plenty of work to do if they are to finish the campaign in a similarly lofty position to 2015/16.

So will this encounter be as packed with goals as Dortmund vs M’gladbach matches have traditionally been? And who will grab the win?

1. Borussia Dortmund v Borussia Monchengladbach betting odds

Even accounting for their inconsistencies this season, Dortmund remain a force to be reckoned with on home soil, and that is reflected in their price of 1.55 with bet365 here.

For punters looking to back a M’gladbach victory then you will be delighted to receive generous odds of 6.50 from the same bookmaker, with the draw available at 4.50.

2. Dortmund v M'Gladbach predictions

One win in nearly two decades: that’s how Borussia M’gladbach have fared at Dortmund’s Westfalenstadion home. So what we have to decide is whether this season’s fixture on December 3 will follow a similar pattern, or if Dortmund’s downturn is such that we can honestly expect this M’gladbach side to create their own little slice of history.

The key thing to note is that Dortmund’s travails have not been caused by their home record. Unbeaten in five at the time of writing, Tuchel’s men also possess a rather convincing goal difference of +9 already on home soil.

In contrast, Monchengladbach are yet to win on the road this term (drawn one, lost four), and their two trips to teams of a similar standard to Dortmund (Bayern and Manchester City) have ended in 0-2 and 0-4 defeats.

So, there will be no surprise to learn that we are tipping a Dortmund victory here, but we are going to do so in a double with Over 2.5 Goals at 2.30 with bet365 - a wager that would have landed in six of the last ten meetings between these two sides.
