Time could be running out for Stuttgart and their stay in the Bundesliga. They will be bidding to end a two-game wait for a victory this weekend when they take on Borussia Monchengladbach. The visitors have won just once in their previous five.
Bundesliga Preview
Few people expected to see Stuttgart struggle as much as they have this term, as they continue to battle for their top-flight status in the Bundesliga at this late stage of the campaign. They come into this fixture on Saturday sitting in the relegation playoff spot, and they could drop into the automatic relegation places if they suffer defeat this weekend. But, they should come into this weekend confident after going three without a defeat.
However, draws are becoming a big issue for Stuttgart at this stage of the season, as they have picked up ties in each of their last two. Only one side in the Bundesliga has drawn more games than Stuttgart this term while no side has picked up few victories. Their most recent draw was picked up against Augsburg last weekend.
Borussia Monchengladbach appear destined to finish outside of the European places this term, as they are languishing in tenth at this stage. That appears to be their best possible finishing position this term, as they are six adrift of the side directly above them in the standings. Gladbach also comes into this weekend after picking up just one win from their last five.
Over that period, they have been held to three draws. However, an eleventh defeat of the season was inflicted in their previous outing, as they were edged out at home by Union Berlin. A response will be needed when they return to action this weekend.
Stuttgart vs Borussia Monchengladbach Head to Head
Stuttgart comes into this fixture having lost just once in the previous six matches against Gladbach. However, that defeat did come in the reverse fixture this season. However, they have landed three wins from their previous four home matches against Gladbach, including in this exact fixture last season.
Stuttgart vs Borussia Monchengladbach Prediction
There will be increased pressure on the home side this weekend, as they bid to pick up maximum points to enhance their chances of survival. Their impressive home record against Gladbach is an interesting angle for betting purposes, and we would be happy to take a chance on the hosts.
