Borussia Monchengladbach will look to continue its recent form when they meet a struggling Werder Bremen side who is still struggling to leave the last place in the Bundesliga.
Gladbach has been really impressive lately, winning 3-0 against Zurich and 3-2 against Hertha before drawing 1-1 at Leverkusen last round. The hosts are currently 4th in the league and know they have a great chance of cementing that spot with a win at home against the last placed team in the Bundesliga. Looking at Gladbach`s offensive strength and Werder’s atrocious defense, the hosts will likely feel confident about their chances here.
Werder Bremen had some decent results in the last six weeks, beating Mainz, Stuttgart and Paderborn, but they are still very inconsistent and have not managed to leave the last place in the table. Looking at their results in the last 4 matches, it`s really not surprising: the 4-0 win against Paderborn came between two heavey defeats against Hamburg and Bayern, and last round Werder only got a 3-3 draw at home with Hannover.

Team news & lineups:
Gladbach will only miss Dahoud for today, while Werder Bremen will have to do without the services of Di Santo, Busch and Prodl, with Wolf doubtful.
Gladbach: Sommer – Korb, Brouwers, Jantschke, Dominguez – Hahn, Kramer, Xhaka, Herrman – Rafael – Kruse
Werder Bremen: Wolf – Selassie, Galvez, Caldirola, Garcia – Fritz, Kroos, Junuzovic – Aycicek – Bartels, Selke
At first glance the under over market looks interesting between these two high scoring teams, but the over is priced too low and I am much more confident picking a solid Gladbach win. The hosts are in great form and you have to feel their offense will demolish Werder’s horrible back line. I expect Borussia to be utterly dominant in midfield with Kramer and Xhaka and they should be able to rip Werder apart with trough balls. A 1 goal asian handicap win really seems within Gladbach’s grasp, so that is my tip and bet on this clash. Prediction: Borussia Monchengladbach – Werder Bremen 3-0.
Pick: Gladbach (-1 Asian Handicap)
