Borussia Monchengladbach vs Wolfsburg prediction, preview, team news and more | Bundesliga 2021-22
The German Bundesliga continues this weekend and will see Borussia Monchengladbach host Wolfsburg at the Borussia-Park on Saturday.
Borussia Monchengladbach have had numerous struggles this campaign and looked to have bounced back from that after the winter break. They, however, received a 6-0 thumping from Borussia Dortmund in their last league game, further raising questions about the ability of manager Adolf Hutter.
The home side sit 13th in the league standings with 26 points from 23 games. They are much closer to the drop zone than to the Champions League spots and will be looking to begin an ascent to the table with a win on Saturday.
Alongside their hosts, Wolfsburg have been one of the most underwhelming sides in the Bundesliga this season. They returned from the winter break with back-to-back wins before suffering a 2-1 defeat to Hoffenheim in their last game.
Wolfsburg sit a place above and a point ahead of their weekend hosts in the league table. They will now be looking to shake off their latest result and return to winning ways when they play on Saturday.
