Borussia Monchengladbach vs Bayer Leverkusen prediction, preview, team news and more | Bundesliga 2021-22

The German Bundesliga resumes this weekend and will see Borussia Monchengladbach host Bayer Leverkusen at Borussia Park on Saturday evening.

Borussia Monchengladbach made an impressive start to 2022 as they picked up a 2-1 victory over defending champions Bayern Munich last time out. Robert Lewandowski gave the Bavarians the lead less than 20 minutes into the game before efforts from Florian Neuhaus and Stefan Lainer turned the game around in favor of the Colts.

Borussia Monchengladbach now sit 12th in the league table with 22 points. They will be looking to build on their latest result when they play on Saturday.

Bayer Leverkusen’s struggles continued last weekend as they were held to a 2-2 draw by Union Berlin. Patrik Schick opened the scoring with his ninth goal in his last five games but soon saw his side go behind minutes later before Jonathan Tah leveled the scores in the dying minutes of the game.

Bayer Leverkusen sit fifth in the Bundesliga with 29 points from 18 games. They will now be looking to return to winning ways when they travel to Monchengladbach at the weekend.

Borussia Monchengladbach ended a five-game winless run as they beat defending champions Bayern Munich last weekend. They, however, faced a thoroughly depleted Bavarian side and were more than fortunate.

Bayer Leverkusen are winless in five games across all competitions and are also not in the best vein of form. The points should be shared on Saturday.

Prediction: Borussia Monchengladbach 1-1 Bayer Leverkusen
