Saarbrucken, a third-tier team, is aiming to continue their impressive run in the DFB-Pokal as they prepare to host Bundesliga team Borussia Monchengladbach in Tuesday’s quarter-final match.

Saarbrücken vs Borussia M.Gladbach Betting Tips &— Saarbrücken or draw

Saarbrucken has been making headlines in the tournament, having already ousted top-tier teams like Bayern Munich and Eintracht Frankfurt in a thrilling manner. In the second round, they shocked Bayern with an eleventh-hour, extra-time goal, followed by a decisive win against Frankfurt in the round of sixteen.

Sarrbrucken has demonstrated formidable strength at home, with all three of their DFB-Pokal victories this season taking place at Ludwigsparkstadion. It is worth mentioning that Saarbrücken, as a fourth-division team, made it to the semifinals of the DFB Pokal in 2020, only to be defeated by Bayer Leverkusen. Going into Tuesday’s semi-final, the hosts have good reason to be confident, having not lost any of their last six matches. Since 2019, Rüdiger Ziehl’s team has only suffered one loss in eight home DFB Pokal matches.

Monchengladbach, currently in the 12th position in the Bundesliga, is set to visit Stadio Ludwigspark after managing only one victory in their last eight matches. Their away game performance has been less than stellar, with no wins in the past nine matches. They recently ended up with a 3:3 draw against their local rivals, Koln.

BMG, past winners of this competition in 1995, are expected to progress to the final. However, I predict that the hosts will once again create challenges for their Bundesliga visitors, who are currently not in their best form.

I´m backing Saarbrucken to avoid defeat at generous odds against a side that has won just one of 12 away matches since August. I also fancy both teams to score and wouldn´t be shocked to see the hosts secure a famous win.
