Two weeks after facing off in a preseason friendly, Borussia Monchengladbach and Bayern Munich are set to meet again, this time in the Bundesliga. This will be the opening game of the league and both sides under new managers, will hope for flying starts. Borussia Monchengladbach hosts the game and will be looking to replicate their 2-0 win over Bayern in preseason. However, they are sure to face a much changed Bayern side, just like they too will have a number of changes in the team. Borussia Monchengladbach started off their season with a 1-0 win over Kaiserslautern in the DFB Pokal. That capped a fine preseason run that had them winning the earlier three matches. On a four-game unbeaten streak and with three clean sheets, Borussia Monchengladbach will feel confident here.

Bayern Munich’s defensive woes from last season seem to have followed them heading to the new season. They had their DFB Pokal game called off due to a Covid-19 outbreak and as a result, they’ve had more time together. One area the new man in charge will have to work on is the defence, the team having conceded at least two goals in their last five matches. Bayern Munich have had no win in preseason, losing three and drawing one of the four matches and also have no clean sheet in their last six matches. They failed to score in the final two preseason games, losing 3-0 to Napoli and 2-0 to Borussia Monchengladbach. Basically, each of their last five matches has produced over 2.5 goals.
