The German Cup is on this Wednesday and a top match in the competition will see Borussia Dortmund host Borussia Monchengladbach at Signal Iduna Park. These two sides are separated by three points in the Bundesliga standings with Monchengladbach top with 19 and Dortmund are fifth with 16 points. Here they will be putting to the side league ambitions to focus on the cup. The two sides have already met in the season, with Dortmund winning 1-0 in what was Monchengladbach’s only loss in their last seven matches. The win was also the last time Dortmund scored – they have no goals in the two matches after that. Dortmund have one loss in their last nine matches and have three clean sheets in the last five matches. They are unbeaten in six matches at home and have scored two goals or more in four of the six and have four clean sheets too. In the last four German Cup matches, Dortmund have scored two or more and have lost once, on post match penalties. Nine of their last 10 matches in the competition have yielded over 2.5 goals. In their last four home matches in the German Cup, Dortmund have either gone through on penalties or extra time.

Borussia Monchengladbach have lost once in their last seven matches and having lost to Dortmund already in the season, they will be keen to avenge. In their last eight matches Monchengladbach have managed just one clean sheet, and we feel Dortmund will be alert to this. Monchengladbach have no win in three straight away matches but are unbeaten in nine away German Cup games, with straight wins. Dortmund have beaten Monchengladbach in each of the last nine matches pitting the two sides.
