Fifth place meets 6th place in Tuesday night’s Bundesliga encounter between Borussia Moenchengladbach and Wolfsburg with both teams vying for European spots next season.

Despite losing back-to-back matches in the German top flight to Freiburg and Bayern Munich respectively, Borussia Moenchengladbach are still within touching distance of the top four and a possible Champions League spot for next season as they trail 4th placed Bayer Leverkusen by just a single point.

Therefore, there’s everything to play for here and the hosts will be keen to build on their recent 4-1 thrashing of Union Berlin last time out at their Stadion im BORUSSIA-PARK, while overall form at home has been impressive as ‘Gladbach have won 10 of their 15 matches at home so far this season.

However, recent results at home suggest that ‘Gladbach are by no means guaranteed of all three points here as they’ve managed to pick up just two wins from their last five matches but goals have been consistent. Indeed, 12 of ‘Gladbach’s 15 home matches have resulted in over 2.5 goals.

Wolfsburg sit in 6th place but they’re not in competition with Borussia Moenchengladbach for 5th spot as they trail their Tuesday night’s hosts by a significant 10-point margin with just three league matches remaining of the Bundesliga season.

Instead, Wolfsburg are looking over their shoulders with the likes of Hoffenheim and Freiburg who are both hot on the heels of Wolfsburg, so the visitors will be very aware that they cannot afford to slip up in this encounter at ‘Gladbach.

This may actually work in Wolfsburg’s favour though as the visitors possess the fourth best away record in the Bundesliga, having won eight of their 15 matches on their travels so far in this campaign, including winning five of their last six matches on the road with wins at Paderborn, Hoffenheim, Augsburg, Bayer Leverkusen and Werder Bremen.

However, Wolfsburg will be up against a Borussia Moenchengladbach outfit who possess the third best home record in the Bundesliga, so the visitors may have their work cut out to get a result here.

Instead, the goals market once again appeals here as 8 of their 15 matches away from home have resulted in over 2.5 goals, including 6 of their last 7 matches on the road producing three goals or more.

Therefore, this clash could see ‘Gladbach and Wolfsburg trading goals on Tuesday night.
