Prediction: Borussia Mönchengladbach vs Bayer Leverkusen Betting Tips

Borussia Mönchengladbach hosts Bayer Leverkusen at Borussia-Park on 2026-02-07. The match promises to be an intriguing encounter with recent form favoring Leverkusen. Borussia Mönchengladbach's injury concerns could impact their defensive solidity, while Leverkusen's offensive form makes them slight favorites.

Borussia Mönchengladbach are missing key players R. Hack and T. Kleindienst due to knee injuries, potentially weakening their attack and defense. Bayer Leverkusen face absentees G. Reyna and N. Tella through injuries, but recent squad depth suggests they can maintain their attacking potency.

If Borussia Mönchengladbach scores first, expect the match to become more open, with Bayer Leverkusen likely to press for an equalizer. A tight game at halftime could see Leverkusen push for late goals, given their recent scoring trends in away fixtures. In a balanced scenario, a draw at halftime is plausible, but Leverkusen could lean on their recent head-to-head form to secure the win in the second half.

Leverkusen's strength lies in quick counter-attacks and exploiting spaces behind Borussia Mönchengladbach's high defensive line. Expect both teams to adopt an attacking approach, with Leverkusen likely to dominate possession and press high. These tactical trends support betting on a high goal count and both teams scoring.
