Goal fest in the Lower Rhine?

On the final matchday of the Bundesliga, Gladbach takes on Wolfsburg, and Wettbasis has a tip at the ready. From a sporting perspective, there is nothing at stake for either club in this encounter. Instead, they will both find themselves in no man’s land in the table when the final reckoning comes.

Furthermore, both sides are in poor form. The “Foals” haven’t won in six games, and the visiting “Wolves” haven’t won in nine league games! In the duel between Gladbach and Wolfsburg, the prediction is that there will be more than three goals and that both sides will score.

Gladbach vs. Wolfsburg prediction AI

Gladbach – Statistics & current form

The “Foals” have squandered their chance of reaching the international places in recent weeks. The Lower Rhine side have been waiting for three points for six games, and the reason for their sporting misery is their weak defense.

In the aforementioned run, coach Gerardo Seoane’s side failed to keep a clean sheet and conceded at least three goals in three of those games! Furthermore, their home form has suffered. Just one win from their last five league games in front of their own fans quickly highlights this.

However, the recent return of Franck Honorat to the attacking midfield is good news for Mönchengladbach. The Frenchman has played six games since his comeback and has scored in four of the last five league games. On top of that, he has scored twice for the team that finished 14th last season.

In his second year in Gladbach, he has also improved overall: although he has played 14 league games fewer than last season, Honorat has already matched his tally from last season with twelve goal contributions (three goals and nine assists). He currently has four goals and eight assists to his name.

Will Honorat strike again for Gladbach?

In light of his current strong form, the betting odds for another goal from him in the clash between Gladbach and Wolfsburg are also worth considering and are available at Bet365. The bookmaker from Stoke-on-Trent not only offers a wide range of betting markets, but also a Bet365 new customer bonus of up to $100 in “bet credits.”

Wolfsburg – Statistics & current form

The “Wolves” are having a weak season and are particularly unstable in defense. This shortcoming is also clearly evident at the moment. The visitors have been waiting for a clean sheet for more than three months (12 games) and in four of their last five league games, interim coach Daniel Bauer’s team has conceded two or more goals.

Given the visitors’ continued shaky back line, the odds on at least two goals from the home side are also recommended in the clash between Gladbach and Wolfsburg. You can place your bets at Betano, and the bookmaker also has Paysafecard in its arsenal of payment methods for sports betting.

Wolfsburg impresses from an offensive perspective

While the defense has been disappointing, the same cannot be said for Wolfsburg’s offense. Only five teams in the Bundesliga have scored more goals than Wolfsburg. Mohamed Amoura, who was signed from Royale Union SG before the season, has hit the ground running in the attack and is the club’s top scorer with ten goals and nine assists.

However, their away form has slipped recently. Although the visitors still occupy a respectable sixth place in the Bundesliga away table, they have not won any of their last four away games and have picked up just one point in that run.

Wolfsburg often sets the course for an away win early on
However, the home side should avoid falling behind at half-time, as last season’s 12th-placed team has been good at managing such leads this season. Six of Wolfsburg’s seven away wins this season have come after taking the lead at half-time. This is an outstanding record, surpassed only by the champions from Munich and Mainz (7 each) in the entire league.

Gladbach – Wolfsburg Head-to-head record / H2H record

The last direct duel between the clubs took place in January this year and, as mentioned at the beginning, ended in a clear 5-1 home win for Wolfsburg against the players from Borussia-Park. Thanks to this victory, the visitors ended a previous run of nine games without a win in this fixture (0-3-6) in the DFB Cup and league competition.

It was also Wolfsburg’s highest win of the season (also 5-1 against RB Leipzig on matchday 12 at the Pleiße). Should the visitors triumph again, they would win both matches in this fixture for the first time since the 2009/10 season. However, the bookmakers see the upcoming encounter as very evenly balanced and the Gladbach vs. Wolfsburg odds do not indicate a clear favorite.

Gladbach – Wolfsburg Tip

In the clash between Gladbach and Wolfsburg, the prediction is for more than 3.5 goals and goals on both sides. Both teams have weak defenses but reliable offenses. Due to this combination, there is no shortage of goals on either side.

The Wolves have scored an average of 3.3 goals in their away games. Furthermore, the Foals have shown a similar pattern of high-scoring games at home, with an average of 3.4 goals.

What’s more, three of Gladbach and Wolfsburg’s last five league games have ended with both sides scoring and more than three goals! Last but not least, the friendly nature of the encounter suggests that Gladbach will score plenty of goals against Wolfsburg. The game has no sporting significance for either team, which means that both sides are unlikely to be at their best defensively.
