Borussia Mönchengladbach welcome holders FC Bayern Munich to the ‘Stadion im Borussia-Park’ in Mönchengladbach, Germany for game week 15 of season 2015-16 in the German Bundesliga.
The game kicks off at 15:30 CEST on Saturday, December 05, 2015 and the fans will hope for an interesting game.
Bayern Munich lead the Bundesliga table with 40 points from 14 matches while the home side are not far down the table currently occupying fourth place with 23 points from their 14 games.
Bayern have been rather unstoppable this season with most of the closest contenders falling apart against the Champions. It will be interesting to see if Mönchengladbach will continue that trend or put up a tough fight and snatch something away from their fancied opponents. Bayern have won four and drawn one in their last five in the Bundesliga. The wins have come against Hertha BSC, Schalke, Stuttgart and Köln while the lone draw was as surprising goalless draw at Eintracht Frankfurt.
Borussia Mönchengladbach meanwhile are undefeated in nine games in the Bundesliga and their run is on the line this week against Bayern. Their last five have resulted in three wins and two draws earning them 11 points in the time. The wins have been against Hannover, Hertha BSC and Schalke while the two draws have come against Hoffenheim and Ingolstadt.
Kingsley Coman has been the surprise package for Bayern with his scintillating form in the recent games scoring and creating at will. The usual suspects Thomas Müller and Robert Lewandowski will also look to continue where they left off last week.
Arjen Robben is slowly gaining his match fitness and along with Douglas Costa, Bayern will be hard to contain down the flanks. Mönchengladbach on the other hand will hope for a good all-round performance from the likes of Dahoud, Korb, Xhaka and Raffael and a point from this fixture will really feel like a win for the home side.
Bayern Munich will go into the game as the favourites but Mönchengladbach will surely feel that they have a role to play in this game and even snatch away a point.
