For the 18th game of the German championship, Gladbach will host Dortmund at Borussia Park.
Gladbach hosted Werder Bremen on Tuesday night and despite their bad performance managed to take the victory with 1-0. She had the advantage from the beginning of the match but it was useless and she could not look threatening in the opponent's home while defensively she risked several times to violate her home. In the end, Gladbach managed to find nets in the 66th minute and kept their lead until the end and get the valuable three points.
So she continued her unbeaten streak in 2021 and this was her 3rd victory in the last 4 matches that bring her to 7th place in the standings with 28 points, just one less than the fourth and last place leading to the upcoming Champions League.
Today's match is especially important as on the one hand it has the same goal as Dortmund, entering the top four, and on the other hand there is always the rivalry of the two "Borussia" when they play opponents.
Disappointing Dortmund midweek in Leverkusen, lost 2-1 to Bayer Leverkusen and stayed for the second consecutive match away from victory. In the first half she was inferior to her opponent and she must feel lucky that she went to the locker room with only one passive goal as in addition to the goal in the 14th minute she received several phases from the hosts. In the second half she increased her performance, equalized at 67 ΄ and closed Bager in the half court but paid her defensive innocence at 80 ΄ conceding a second goal.
With this defeat he remained in 4th place and 29 points but now the minus 10 from the first Bayern Munich makes dreams for a title prohibitive.
In her favor the tradition as against the other Borussia counts 12 consecutive victories with its last defeat being in April 2015.
The Borussia derby! Gladbach comes from positive results and seems ready to break the tradition of recent years that will even raise it to the top four in the standings. Dortmund, on the other hand, is not in good shape and despite the change in its bench recently, it did not show much improvement.
I expect an open game with many phases, both have great quality from the middle and front while defensively they concede goals easily.
Proposal: Gladbach - Dortmund OVER 3.5 goals with odds of 2.20
