Borussia M'gladbach desperately need points on Sunday, Oct 18 at 5:30 PM in the Bundesliga. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Borussia M'gladbach come into this fixture struggling badly (0W 4L in last 4). Hoffenheim, meanwhile, arrive struggling badly (1W 3L in last 4) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

History strongly favours Borussia M'gladbach here — they've won 6 of 10 previous meetings against Hoffenheim, with 2 draws. Their last encounter ended in Borussia M'gladbach won 4–0. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 5.6 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Borussia M'gladbach a slight edge, but Hoffenheim are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
