Borussia M’gladbach
Borussia M’gladbach had a challenging season last year, finishing in 14th place. Gerardo Seoane’s side struggled, spending most of the time in the second half of the Bundesliga table.
Seoane: “I expect us to play with more urgency on and off the ball this season, to be more resilient and to respond to setbacks better. In general though, we want to stay true to the path we’re on.” #BMGB04 pic.twitter.com/Y3UuP4ROz5

Borussia M’gladbach’s main issue is defensive play, as they struggled in goals conceded last season. However, their strong offense could lead to a successful finish.
Borussia has had a good pre-season, but the true test will be their Bundesliga opener against Bayer 04 Leverkusen.
Seoane on @bayer04_en: “They’re a side with a lot of quality, both individually and as a team. Our job is to bring the necessary attributes and discipline to the pitch that will cause them problems.” #BMGB04 pic.twitter.com/aVHB2cekGo

Borussia’s squad is looking strong for the upcoming match, with only one player, Nico Elvedi, missing.
Bayer 04 Leverkusen
Bayer 04 Leverkusen had a mixed pre-season with one win, three draws, and a heavy defeat against Arsenal. They have not lost any important players this summer and strengthened their squad.
Under Xabi Alonso’s management, Bayer has shown strength in defense but will need to improve their scoring abilities for the new season.
