Stuttgart vs Borussia Monchengladbach prediction, preview, team news and more | Bundesliga 2021-22
Bundesliga continues this weekend and will see Stuttgart host Borussia Monchengladbach at the Mercedes Benz Arena on Saturday afternoon.
Stuttgart's poor form continued last weekend as they were beaten 2-1 by Hoffenheim. The Reds took the lead just before the hour mark via a Wataru Endo strike but let it slip from their grasp in the final five minutes of the game.
The hosts sit 17th in the league table with just 19 points from 24 games. They will be looking to begin picking up points as soon as possible to avoid an impending drop.
Borussia Monchengladbach played out a highly entertaining and eventful 2-2 draw against Wolfsburg in their last game. After finding themselves two goals down in the opening half-hour, Die Borussen began mounting a comeback and thought they had gone all the way before a VAR decision canceled out their additional time winner.
Borussia Monchengladbach sit 13th in the Bundesliga table with 27 points from 24 games. They will now be looking to return to winning ways this weekend in a bid to move up the table.

Stuttgart vs Borussia Monchengladbach Prediction
Stuttgart are on a nine-game winless streak, losing seven games in that period. They have failed to win any of their last five home league games and could struggle on Saturday.
Borussia Monchengladbach have been extremely disappointing themselves, winning just one of their last six league games. They should, however, be able to come out on top against a fellow struggling and significantly weaker opposition.
Prediction: Stuttgart 1-2 Borussia Monchengladbach
