Saarbrucken vs Borussia M`gladbach prediction 07.02.2024

• Competition: DFB Pokal
• Date: Wednesday, 7th February 2024
• Kickoff: 19:45 UK / 20:45 CET
• Venue: Ludwigspark Stadion (Saarbrücken)

The Giant Slayer, Saarbrucken. Despite being from the third-tier of German football, this Saarland team has already claimed victories over Bayern Munich and Eintracht Frankfurt this season on their journey to the DFB Pokal quarterfinals. On Wednesday night, we’ll find out if they can topple another Bundesliga team.

Despite their cup success, Saarbrucken currently sit 11th in the 3. Liga, making it seem improbable for Rudiger Ziehl’s team to challenge for a promotion playoff spot. Since the winter break, they’ve recorded two draws and one loss. In their last match, they managed a 1-1 draw against Borussia Dortmund II away from home. The visitors dominated with 75% ball possession and 21 more shots on goal, but it wasn’t enough to secure the full three points.

This season has been challenging for Borussia Monchengladbach, having amassed a mere 21 points in 20 Bundesliga games. This places Borussia just six points clear of the relegation playoff zone. Gerardo Seoane’s squad has failed to secure a win in their last three matches. In their most recent match, they suffered a 3-1 defeat on the road against Bayern Munich.

Saarbrucken vs Borussia Monchengladbach pick: Saarbrucken to win or draw

Wednesday night’s game is set to be one of the most significant in Saarbrucken’s history. Having already triumphed over two Bundesliga sides, Saarbrucken is optimistic for another significant win. Borussia Monchengladbach has been unsuccessful in their last seven away games, which gives Saarbrucken a considerable chance to evade defeat in this match.
