Both Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Monchengladbach will be eyeing their first wins in the Bundesliga this season when they face off in the second week of action. The two played to 1-1 draws in their respective openers. Hosts Leverkusen drew with Union Berlin and drew with champions Bayern Munich. Leverkusen had an unconvincing campaign last season and will hope to do better than their sixth placed finish. They go to this game unbeaten in their last three matches but have just three wins and three clean sheets in their last 10 matches. Leverkusen came from a goal down against Union Berlin, having trailed for five minutes, to secure the 1-1 draw and they’ve failed to score in just one of their last five matches. Both teams have scored in three of Leverkusen’s last four matches. In Bundesliga action, they are winless in the last four, losing one and drawing three.

Monchengladbach, on the other hand, take to this game a five-game unbeaten run, and they’ve won five of their last 10 matches, while keeping three clean sheets in the 10 games. In their opening league game, they took an early lead against Bayern Munich but went to the break tied at 1-1 and that’s how it ended. They had won each of the earlier four games but they will still have worries about their defence with both sides having scored in five of Monchengladbach’s last 10 matches. Away from home, they have three wins and two losses, and they’ll hope to rise from a run of three straight losses against Leverkusen.
