Bayern Munich will look to continue their impressive run of form
Bayern Munich will look to continue their impressive run of form

Borussia Monchengladbach host Bayern Munich at Borussia Park in round two of the DFB Pokal on Wednesday, with both sides having contrasting seasons so far.

Borussia Monchengladbach have had a disappointing campaign thus far. Adolf Hutter's side are currently 12th in the Bundesliga and have failed to consistently string wins together. They will look to progress to the next round of the competition with a win against giants Bayern Munich.

Bayern Munich, on the other hand, have been imperious as usual this season. Julian Nagelsmann's side have only lost once this campaign and will look to make it four wins in a row against Gladbach on Wednesday.

Cheers for that Stevie ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ™ƒ And welcome back ๐Ÿ™
