Match Prediction: 1. FC Heidenheim 1-2 Borussia Mönchengladbach

1. FC Heidenheim's recent form suggests a struggle, with only two draws in their last five matches and a heavy defeat against Bayer Leverkusen. Their inability to secure a win, coupled with a leaky defence, indicates they might find it challenging to contain Borussia Mönchengladbach's attacking prowess. However, Heidenheim's home draws show resilience, hinting at a potential to frustrate Gladbach if they can capitalise on their midfield creativity.

Borussia Mönchengladbach, on the other hand, have shown signs of resurgence with back-to-back wins against 1.FC Köln and FC St. Pauli. Their recent victories suggest a team gaining momentum, particularly in attack, which could exploit Heidenheim's defensive frailties. Yet, their losses to Bayern München and Union Berlin indicate vulnerabilities that Heidenheim might target, especially if Gladbach's defence remains inconsistent.
