Borussia Mönchengladbach vs RB Leipzig | Bundesliga Preview & Betting Tips | 28 Nov 2025

Borussia-Park will be bouncing for this one – Gladbach have turned their stadium into a fortress again and a win would keep them right in the European mix. Leipzig arrived as the only unbeaten side in the league but got turned over last weekend, so they’ll be desperate to get back on track. Expect a proper atmosphere with the home end in full voice and a strong away following from Saxony.

Both teams usually line up in a 4-2-3-1, with Gladbach happy to soak up pressure and hit quickly, while Leipzig look to dominate possession and press high. No major fresh injury concerns reported for either side.

Gladbach have been ruthless on the break lately, scoring 55% of their goals in the second half and netting 0.4 from set pieces. Leipzig control the ball (55% possession) and fire in 14 shots per game, but they’ve looked a touch vulnerable defensively on the road.

Both sides are strong in transition – this has all the makings of an open, end-to-end Bundesliga classic.

Gladbach over the last ten: six wins, two draws, two defeats – 19 scored, 19 conceded, three clean sheets. They’ve been brilliant at home and are scoring freely.

Leipzig: seven wins, one draw, two defeats – 21 scored, 11 conceded, three clean sheets. Their first proper stumble last weekend, but the underlying numbers remain strong.

Around 4 bookings – leaning over 3.5 cards in a spicy encounter.

Combined average 11 – over 9.5 corners looks nailed on.

Nearly 10 combined – over 9 shots on target should land comfortably.

Gladbach at home (last 10): 80% win rate, averaging 2.6 scored and just 1.2 conceded – a real fortress this season.

Leipzig away (last 10): 70% wins, averaging 2.1 scored and 1.1 conceded – very strong travellers but just took a hit last week.

Leipzig edge chance creation, but Gladbach have been lethal at home – expect goals at both ends.

Leipzig have dominated recent meetings – winning four of the last five, including a 2-1 victory in Leipzig last April and a 3-1 win here twelve months ago. The only blot was a 2-2 draw at Borussia-Park in 2023.

Gladbach are flying at home and Leipzig looked rattled last weekend. Borussia-Park under the lights on a Friday night? This feels like a statement win for the Foals.
