Winning the Bundesliga is still in Leipzig’s reach, and they will be hoping to enhance their chances when they host Borussia Monchengladbach in Round 23. Leipzig head to this game placed second on 47 points, two behind league leaders Bayern Munich. Monchengladbach, meanwhile, have 33 points, in eighth place. The hosts have had a good run in recent matches and head here with just one loss in the last six matches. That loss was in the Champions League against Liverpool but in Bundesliga action they have four straight wins. Leipzig have the best defence in the league, having conceded just 18 goals. They have hit at least two goals in four of their last five league matches, taking their tally to 11 goals in the last five matches and four conceded. The hosts head here with three straight wins at home in Bundesliga action while in the 11 home league matches this season, they’ve won nine and lost just once. They’ve also scored in 10 of the 11 home league matches this season.

Monchengladbach, on their part, head to this game on the back of two straight losses, and winless in four matches. They are coming from a 2-0 loss to Manchester City in the Champions League, stretching the poor run since announcing the manager will leave for Borussia Dortmund. Gladbach are nine points off the Champions League slots and in their recent form, they don’t seem like top four contenders. They are the poorest in defence among the sides in the top eight, having conceded 33 goals. In their last 10 matches, Monchengladbach have managed just two clean sheets and they’ve conceded twice in three of their last four matches. They are winless in their last four league matches and have registered just five wins in their last 15 league matches. Away from home in the league, Monchengladbach have drawn most of their recent matches. The visitors head here with one win, one loss and five draws in their last seven. Seven of their last 10 away league matches have produced over 2.5 goals
