Borussia Monchengladbach vs Bayern Munich Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 2nd September 2023

The new Bundesliga season continues on Saturday with Bayern Munich swinging over to Borussia-Park. The reigning champions will lock horns with Borussia Monchengladbach, hoping to get their title defence off on the right note.

They are not exactly up to a dream opening on the new season as Borussia Monchengladbach have had to settle for a single point so far in the Bundesliga.

Bayern Munich put six points on display after their first two outings of the new season, and they will be tough to handle in their pursuit of maintaining maximum points.

Borussia Monchengladbach enter their next Bundesliga match, averaging a decent 1.6 goals per game in their last ten matches, where they pulled off 16 goals, while also conceding 18 times. That amounts to an average of 1.8 per game, in which they kept their opponents from scoring three times.

Bayern Munich scored 23 goals, conceded ten and held on for a clean sheet in four of their last ten matches.

The late encounter in the Bundesliga between these two teams was a belter of a 3-2 match. Are we in for a similar goal-fest this coming Saturday?

Borussia Monchengladbach vs Bayern Munich Prediction

Borussia Monchengladbach Form

In their last three matches, Borussia Monchengladbach beat TuS Bersenbrueck 0-7, drew 4-4 with Augsburg, before losing 0-3 against Bayer Leverkusen. Borussia Monchengladbach won three of their previous six matches at Borussia-Park in the Bundesliga. They drew one and suffered two defeats, scoring eight goals to six against.

Finishing inside the top half is the bare minimum Borussia Monchengladbach expect for this season, but the ideal target is a spot in an international competition.

Bayern Munich Form

Bayern Munich are in awesome shape going into this next encounter, as they won their last three matches on the bounce. FC Koln got left behind in a 1-2 win, before Werder Bremen got hammered in a 0-4 victory. Augsburg was the most recent victim in a 3-1 win for Bayern Munich. Bayern Munich performed a very admirable four wins in six Bundesliga away matches, drawing none but losing twice as well. They scored 11 times, while also conceding seven goals.

Defending champion Bayern Munich are of course a red-hot favourite to re-claim the title, and they aim to make a good start to the season.

Bayern Munich are on the look-out for a win, and we expect them to claim it in a high scoring match, when they visit Borussia Monchengladbach at Borussia-Park this coming Saturday.
