B. Monchengladbach - Schalke Prediction, Picks and Tips

Some are on top after an intoxicating Champions League evening, others sink into crisis and chaos. Now there will be a duel of opposites on Saturday when Borussia Mönchengladbach and FC Schalke 04 face each other in the Bundesliga. Because the moods in the two clubs could hardly be more different. Gladbach is now eager to finally take the top league momentum into the Bundesliga, Schalke want to finally end their downward slide and write positive headlines - there have been none of them for ages, especially sporty. So it is not surprising that the best betting providers have identified a clear favorite. At Gladbach vs. Schalke, the odds speak a clear language.

Borussia Mönchengladbach once again thrilled the Champions League during the week. As three weeks ago, they played themselves into a frenzy and shot Shakhtar Donetsk, this time a dominant 4-0 score, previously they won an impressive 6-0 away. Two lavish football festivals that are finally to be broadcast in the Bundesliga. Because in the Champions League things are going very well for coach Marco Rose's team, but in the Bundesliga the engine continues to stutter. The reason for this is that the opportunities here are not exploited as consistently as in the premier class - and in the end the narrow tours are regularly gambled away. Borussia made this clear once again on the last matchday against Augsburg, when they could not achieve the decisive 2-0 again and then conceded the unnecessary and bitter equalizer in the 88th minute. The foals lost a full nine points after tours, and no Bundesliga team has given away a victory more often. In the Champions League, too, Gladbach gave up two leads late, in the two 2-2 draws against Inter and Real Madrid, the equalizer was also conceded shortly before the final whistle. The lack of concentration in the final and defense should now be put aside, the festival in the premier class gives the foals the self-confidence they need to step up in the Bundesliga - Schalke could be a grateful opponent for this, in order to connect to the top places in the table with a victory. Although the Mönchengladbachers have been unbeaten in seven home games, they have only drawn three of the four games this season.

Schalke would certainly sign a draw in advance. Because winning points would really not be bad news at the end of this turbulent week at the Revierklub. The chaos is getting worse and worse and affects the club on all levels. On Tuesday, Schalke announced the separation from squad planner Michael Reschke, sporting director Jochen Schneider justified the step with "different views on the sporting future of the club". Then Schalke drew attention to themselves with suspensions of three players. Amine Harit and Nabil Bentaleb were both removed from the squad, Vedad Ibisevic will even leave Schalke completely, his contract will be terminated on December 31, 2020. Ibisevic had a verbal argument with assistant Naldo. But that should not have been the reason for the termination of the contract, explained Schneider. "Both Vedad and we had different expectations of his involvement at Schalke 04. I would like to emphasize that the emotional outburst during training last Sunday has nothing to do with this decision - something like that happens in football," said Schalke's sports director. Meanwhile, Harit gets a pause to think, Bentaleb can look for a new club. “Schalke and Nabil Bentaleb obviously don't go together. It was a process. They will part ways by summer 2021 at the latest, ”explained Schneider. In the middle of the terrible sporting crisis with 24 league games without a win, Schalke is weakening itself and decimating its squad - but this is how the forces should be bundled before the difficult guest game in Mönchengladbach. In addition, no other Bundesliga team waits longer for a zero game, the battered Schalke conceded goals 20 games in a row. The extent of the historical misery is also made clear by these statistics: Up to now, the miners have been relegated to a relegation zone on every match day - the last time that was the case was 27 years ago, in the 1993/94 season.
