The Bundesliga returns this weekend and will see Borussia Monchengladbach host Hertha Berlin at Borussia-Park on Saturday evening.

Borussia Monchengladbach's struggles continued last weekend as they were beaten 3-2 by relegation-threatened Stuttgart, squandering a two-goal lead in the process. Goals from Frenchmen Alassane Plea and Marcus Thuram gave the Colts the lead just after the half-hour mark before their opponents came back to take the lead late in the game.

The hosts sit 13th in the league table with 27 points from 25 games. They are just four points above the drop zone and will be looking to widen the gap this weekend.

Hertha Berlin are in even worse form than their hosts as they are yet to win a game of football in 2022. They were beaten 4-1 by Eintracht Frankfurt in their last outing, marking a fourth straight defeat for the visitors.
