Borussia Monchengladbach will be bidding to end the four-game winless run this Friday when they play host to Stuttgart at the Borussia-Park in the 13th round of the Bundesliga. Kickoffs at 22:30 EAT.
Just after enjoying an excellent start under Daniel Farke’s management, just one win in their last five league games has seen Gladbach drop into the bottom half of the table.
Gladbach will aim for better results following 2-1 Bundesliga loss to Union Berlin in their last outing. In that match, Borussia Mönchengladbach managed 45% possession, seven shots with three of them on target and a goal scored by Nico Elvedi (33′). Union Berlin got 14 shots with five of them on target and goals by Kevin Behrens (79′) and Danilho Doekhi (97′).
Having failed to win any of their opening 10 league games this season, two have arrived in quick succession for Stuttgart in recent weeks. Interim manager Michael Wimmer, who was promoted from being assistant coach following the sacking of Pellegrino Matarazzo last month, will feel that he is laying down a claim for the permanent role following consecutive wins at the Mercedes-Benz Arena against potential relegation rivals VfL Bochum and Augsburg.
Stuttgart enters this meeting after 2-1 Bundesliga victory to beat Augsburg in their most recent encounter. In that match, Stuttgart had 63% possession, 29 shots with eight of them on target and goals scored by Serhou Guirassy (15′) and Waldemar Anton (91′). Augsburg got 11 shots with four of them on target and a goal by Florian Niederlechner (4′).
