Borussia MönchengladbachForm guide
Stuttgart have been far better in Europe than in the Bundesliga. They are 13th with six points from six league games, after defeats by Bayern, Hoffenheim, Dortmund and Hamburg, but they have seven points from three Champions League games and drew 1-1 with Atlético Madrid on Tuesday. They have had three days to recover from that game.
Borussia Mönchengladbach are bottom with no points from six games, scoring 8 and conceding 20. Their defence has been the problem: they lost 5-0 at Freiburg, 4-3 at home to Mainz and Elversberg, and 2-1 to Hoffenheim at the weekend. Every one of their six league games had at least three goals.
Head-to-head
Stuttgart have won four of the last six meetings, including 3-0 at Gladbach in January 2026 and 1-0 at home in August 2025. Five of those six games had at least three goals.
Team news
Gladbach are missing a host of forwards, including Kleindienst, Honorat, Kühn and Fleck, which limits their threat. Stuttgart are short in defence, with Zagadou, Al Dakhil and Mittelstädt all out.
Our prediction and why
Our main tip is over 1.5 goals. All six of Gladbach's league games had three or more goals, and Stuttgart's depleted defence makes a clean, low-scoring game unlikely.
Other bets to consider
Stuttgart or draw (1X) is our second pick. Gladbach have lost every league game and are without most of their strikers. Stuttgart's tiredness after Tuesday is why we cover the draw.
