Borussia Mönchengladbach head into this fixture brimming with belief after collecting 9 points from a possible 15 in their last 5. 18 goals scored and 8 conceded in their last 5 appearances point to a side that carries a genuine goal threat.

As the stronger side on paper, SC Freiburg will want to dictate proceedings. However, Borussia Mönchengladbach will be well aware of the threat they pose and may look to frustrate and hit on the break.
