Borussia Monchengladbach - Bayer Leverkusen (Bundesliga)

On Saturday afternoon, the German Bundesliga offers us an interestingly derby between the teams of Borussia Monchengladbach and Bayer Leverkusen. The two opponents occupy top positions in the standings, respectively third and fourth place, as their gap is only two points, which means that after this match could make a change of places.

The meeting will be played at the stadium, "Borussia Park" on May 9 2015. The hosts are in excellent shape and are unbeaten in the league for 11 consecutive meetings, but the guests from Leverkusen also recording 10 consecutive rounds without loss. The two teams have equal chances for victory according to the bookmakers, with the odds of 2.45 for Borussia and 2.87 for Leverkusen. On the earlier stage of the championship, the teams were drawn. Now this option is estimated at 3.40.

As we said, Borussia Monchengladbach takes the third position in the standings, but the lead over Bayer Leverkusen is too small and if wants to move away from them the team will have to try to win this game. This victory will provide a direct ranking in the groups of the Champions league. The coach of Borussia - Lucien Favre remains without the services of the Austrian defender MartinStranzl, but all other players are online for the important meeting.

Bayer Leverkusen already failed to beat Borussia once at home and now has to try to do this on "Borussia Park". The bad thing is that traditionally the host wins here, but the guests are in great shape and have a solid defense, which in the last 10 rounds allowed only 5 goals and 8 of the matches finished with dry network. The coach Roger Schmidt has several problems with the composition. Karim Bellarabi will not play, because of a penalty and with injuries are Papadopoulos, Gonzalo Castro and Kruse. Also, one of the best midfielders in the team - Lars Bender is questionable.

Today will face two really equivalent teams located in top form, suggesting a goal-scoring spectacle.

Prediction: Over 2.5 goals @ 1.95 at bet365
