Monchengladbach will desperately seek to put an end to their current run of negative results. As this horrendous form has seen them slip down the table, their aspirations to return to the Champions League next season seem to be fizzling out already.

Following a strong start to the campaign, Leverkusen have had the wind taken out of their sails in recent weeks. Last season, they narrowly missed out on the 4th-place to this weekend opponents, and this dip in form that they are experiencing may set them aback on their charge for continental qualification.

Monchengladbach vs Bayer Leverkusen Team News

Bayer Leverkusen's last outing saw them fall at home to a harsh 2-1 defeat against Freiburg. In spite of the hosts' dominance in this contest, both teams went in at break on level terms, and shortly after restart, the visitors broke the deadlock, and soon added a second through Lucas Holer.

Leon Bailey pulled one back for Leverkusen, but it proved to be a mere consolation as Freiburg held on to the lead and claimed all three points.

This defeat was their third consecutive match in the league without victory. Having collected 37 points from 23 league games this season, Die Werkself are currently sitting in 6th-place on the league table, five points adrift 4th-placed Eintracht Frankfurt.

Peter Bosz's team were top of the league at a certain point this season, but that lead has since been squandered, with them out of European qualification spots. Nevertheless, the experienced manager will be expected to come up with a plan to arrest the slump of his side.

In their last fixture, the Foals were victims of a phenomenal turnaround at RB Leipzig. After a brilliant first-half performance, the visitors went in at halftime with a two-goal lead to show for it. However, their defensive frailties were on display in the second spell as they crumbled under relentless pressure from the hosts, conceding three goals - consisting of a late winner by Leipzig through Alexander Sorloth.

Like their opponents, Monchengladbach are also on a winless run that was stretched to five matches after their last defeat. Die Fohlen are languishing in ninth-place on the league standings, having gathered 34 points from 23 league games this season.

Marco Rose's side suffered another blow in form of their 1-0 loss to Borussia Dortmund in the DFB-Pokal quarter-final in midweek. Their confidence is at an all-time low and qualification for Champions League seems a long shot as they sit nine points adrift Eintracht Frankfurt who occupy the 4th-spot.

It was goals galore in the reverse fixture last November, a seven-goal thriller that saw Bayer Leverkusen clinch all three points. It is quite a pivotal clash as victory for Monchengladbach would move them within one point of their opposition as they both battle for continental football next season.

Injured or Suspended Players

Monchengladbach: Torben Musel, Famana Quizera, Mamadou Doucoure and Lars Stindl.

Bayer Leverkusen: Paulinho, Santiago Arias, Lars Bender, Julian Baumgartlinger, Lukas Hradecky, Daley Sinkgraven, Florian Wirtz, Timothy Fosu-Mensah, Jonathan Tah and Leon Bailey.

M'gladbach vs Bayer Leverkusen Predictions

Monchengladbach have had troubles keeping their opponents out from scoring this season, and their defensive nervousness seem to have intensified in recent weeks, as shown in their capitulation against RB Leipzig.

Bayer Leverkusen, themselves, are no better defensively. In fact, they have not kept a clean sheet in their last eleven matches in the league. This match will be in the favour of the side with the best attack. Hence, we expect a high-scoring match – both sides finding the back of the net with no less than three goals on board.
