BVB will play the second Sunday match of the Bundesliga away to their Lower Rhine namesakes in Mönchengladbach from 5:30 p.m. Now that qualification for the Champions League has been definitively secured, it will be interesting to see how much effort the team will still put into today’s game. Borussia Dortmund is expected to start with the following lineup.

For the Black and Yellows, a quartet is unavailable today, consisting of:

  • Niklas Süle
  • Felix Nmecha
  • Karim Adeyemi

kicker expects Niko Kovac to go with this BVB starting eleven:

That would mean Julian Brandt gets the chance from the start in his third-to-last game for Dortmund to show his quality one more time. Up front, the recently preferred duo of Guirassy and Beier would lead the line.

Gladbach vs. BVB with only two absences

Borussia Mönchengladbach will only be without two players, namely Jens Castrop and Tim Kleindienst.

With a home record of 4-6-5, the “Foals” are anything but a force at home, although BVB have not always found this away fixture particularly easy either.

Once again, kicker expects coach Eugen Polanski to go with the following personnel when points are up for grabs at Borussia-Park this afternoon:

Moritz Nicolas – Philipp Sander, Nico Elvedi, Kevin Diks – Joseph Scally, Yannik Engelhardt, Lukas UllrichRocco Reitz, Kevin StögerFranck Honorat, Haris Tabakovic

On the betting market, BVB are considered fairly clear favorites to win. Odds for a Dortmund victory are around 1.94. Odds for a home win are being offered between 3.50 and 3.60.

At home, BVB had, as in previous years, beaten this opponent, this time 2-0. Last season, they won more narrowly 3-2, while the away match ended in a 1-1 draw. Borussia Dortmund are unbeaten against Mönchengladbach in their last six games.
