RB Leipzig vs Borussia Mönchengladbach prediction and betting tips on November 9, 2024
Game Prediction
In the 10th round of Germany's Bundesliga 1 on November 9, 2024, RB Leipzig will host Borussia Mönchengladbach. The home side, one of the league’s top contenders, is focused on securing a win over this mid-table opponent.
Prediction for RB Leipzig vs Borussia Mönchengladbach
Under Marco Rose, the "Bulls" have maintained consistently strong performances, even as they continue to sell their homegrown stars. Last season, they finished in the top four, trailing only Bayer Leverkusen and Stuttgart while nudging Borussia Dortmund down to fifth place. Meanwhile, the "Foals" had another lackluster season, ending in 14th position.
Despite these modest results, it’s surprising that Gerardo Seoane remained as head coach in Mönchengladbach. The squad has seen few changes, aside from the loan of promising Kouadio Koné to Roma, with a mandatory buy clause of €20 million. Leipzig, meanwhile, sold players like Simakan and Olmo but reinvested in new signings, including Vandevoordt, Nusa, and loaned Vermeeren.
Rose’s side impressively ended Bayer’s unbeaten streak with an away win in Leverkusen back in August. Leipzig’s domestic form has been solid, though a couple of goalless draws against Union Berlin and St. Pauli – the latter eventually avenged in the cup – have been blemishes. Last week, they lost to Dortmund in a hard-fought match. However, in the Champions League, Leipzig has struggled, falling to Atletico, Juventus, and Liverpool, and even losing to Celtic this week. Mönchengladbach, meanwhile, has shown limited improvement. They are already out of the German Cup, having lost to Eintracht Frankfurt, and have lost half their league games. However, they managed a strong 4-1 win over Werder Bremen in their last match.
