Borussia Monchengladbach v Eintracht Frankfurt Stats and Analysis

Borussia Monchengladbach were held to a 2-2 draw by Hertha Berlin last time out. Despite leading 2-1 at half time, Leipzig battled back in the second half to deny Monchengladbach a third consecutive win in the Bundesliga. It was a common routine for Marco Rose’s side, who have failed to keep a clean sheet in 10 of their last 12 matches in all competitions. 

Marco Rose’s side have lost three of their last four home matches in the Bundesliga. FC Koln, Mainz 05 and Bayer Leverkusen have all beaten Monchengladbach at Borussia Park recently. 

Eintracht Frankfurt beat third place Wolfsburg 4-3 last Saturday, extending their winning run in the Bundesliga to three consecutive matches. Adi Hütter’s side have also won three of their last five away matches and picked up recent points against Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig away from home. 

Frankfurt have also been involved in several high scoring games lately.

They have only failed to score in two of their matches throughout the entire season. 

Borussia Monchengladbach v Eintracht Frankfurt Bets

Borussia Monchengladbach and Eintracht Frankfurt have similar odds as outright match winners, with no clear favourite. Both sides are both 2.5 to win the match. However, Frankfurt are in much better form and 2.5 for the away side to win looks better value. At odds of 3.8, a draw is also good value but, considering Monchengladbach’s inconsistent home form, a draw could be a more high risk option.

There could be goals in this Bundesliga fixture on Saturday. Monchengladbach have a poor defensive record and have seen over 2.5 goals in four of their last five matches. Frankfurt also have an eye for goal and have seen over 2.5 goals in six of their last seven away matches in the Bundesliga. Odds of 1.5 for over 2.5 goals in this fixture looks to be a good value bet. 

With goals expected, there is also good value in the anytime goalscorer markets. Monchengladbach’s striker Lars Strindl was the hat-trick hero when these two sides met in December. He has also scored two goals in his last three matches and is backed at 3.2 to score again against Frankfurt. For Frankfurt, Portuguese striker Andre Gomes is a good option for an anytime scorer. Gomes has scored nine goals in his last nine matches for Frankfurt and has 23 overall this season. He is backed at 1.73 to score anytime against Monchengladbach.
