Borussia Mönchengladbach vs Borussia Dortmund prediction and betting tips on December 7, 2024
Game Prediction
In the 13th round of the German Bundesliga on December 7, 2024, Borussia Mönchengladbach will host Borussia Dortmund. The home team, who have been underperforming themselves, will aim to take advantage of Dortmund's poor away form.
Our Prediction for Borussia Mönchengladbach vs Borussia Dortmund
The "Foals" have not impressed for a while. Last season was particularly weak, with only 34 points—just one more than Bochum, who ended up in the relegation playoffs. Meanwhile, the "Yellow and Blacks" reached the Champions League final but lost, and in the Bundesliga, they dropped to fifth place.
This season, Dortmund has been without Terzić as head coach and without key players like Hummels, Reus, and Füllkrug. Nuri Şahin has taken over as the head coach, and the club signed several new players, including the prolific Gerassi. In the Champions League, they won four matches, including a 2-0 lead over Real Madrid before collapsing. But in the Bundesliga, their form has been heavily dependent on home games. While they have won every match at Signal Iduna Park, away from home they started with a 0-0 draw against Werder Bremen and have suffered defeats since. In the last round, they let Bayern equalize late to finish 1-1 at home.
Gerardo Seoane has managed to hold onto his position, despite losing four of the first six Bundesliga matches and an early cup exit. However, the team has slowly gained momentum, alternating between home victories and away draws.
