Match Prediction: Bayern Munich vs. Borussia Monchengladbach
Having reclaimed the championship title, Bayern Munich tends to approach the remaining fixtures with less intensity. This relaxed attitude, coupled with an already shaky defense, may allow opponents more opportunities. Vincent Kompany's side conceded in seven of their last nine Bundesliga matches, keeping clean sheets only against struggling Heidenheim and an out-of-form Mainz. Furthermore, Bayern conceded seven goals in their last four home games in this tournament.
A slip-up in this game would end Gladbach's hopes of European qualification. Therefore, Gerardo Seoane's men are unlikely to sit back defensively, especially as they thrive on attacking football. Borussia's scoring streak in the league extends to 10 matches, and they have scored at least twice in six of their last seven away Bundesliga games.
Gladbach has scored against Bayern in six of their last seven league meetings. Given the current circumstances, it's not justified to offer high odds on at least one goal from the visitors. My prediction: Borussia Monchengladbach Individual Total Over 1
