Wolfsburg vs Borussia Monchengladbach Prediction
Wolfsburg go into Saturday's game as favorites but will have to be wary of a talented Borussia Monchengladbach side who will be in high spirits after their win against Dortmund. The lack of creativity has been a concerning factor for Wolfsburg in recent games, and it will be intriguing to see how they bounce back from poor performances.
We foresee Wolfsburg grinding out a narrow win on Saturday.
Prediction: Wolfsburg 1-0 Borussia Monchengladbach
