Fixture: Borussia Mönchengladbach vs SC Freiburg
Date: Sunday, 05 October 2025
Kick-off: 18:30 BST
Venue: Stadion im Borussia-Park
Match Prediction: Borussia Mönchengladbach 1-2 SC Freiburg
Borussia Mönchengladbach, struggling with recent form, may find it challenging to break down SC Freiburg's solid defence. Freiburg's recent wins against Werder Bremen and VfB Stuttgart suggest they can exploit Gladbach's vulnerabilities, particularly after conceding multiple goals in their last few games.
However, Gladbach's home advantage could provide a slight boost, potentially leading to a more competitive match than their recent results indicate.
SC Freiburg's ability to score consistently in their recent victories could be crucial. Their defensive resilience, demonstrated in the draw against TSG Hoffenheim, might help them contain Gladbach's attack.
Yet, Freiburg's away form has been less convincing, which could give Gladbach a chance to capitalise on any lapses.
Borussia Mönchengladbach's recent form has been poor, with three losses and two draws in their last five games. Conceding 15 goals in these matches highlights significant defensive issues that could impact their performance against SC Freiburg.
However, their home draw against Hamburger SV shows they can still be competitive, which might give them some confidence going into this match.

SC Freiburg have shown a mix of solid performances and setbacks in their recent games. Their ability to secure wins against Werder Bremen and VfB Stuttgart indicates a potent attacking threat, which could trouble Gladbach's leaky defence.
