Player to watch – Tiago Pereira Cardoso
Highly-rated teenager Tiago Pereira Cardoso has been getting a run in the Gladbach team in the absence of first-choice injured keeper Jonas Omlin and the 18-year-old should have another chance to impress on Sunday.
Cardoso showing promise
Cardoso kept a clean sheet and made three saves against RB Leipzig last weekend and the 18-year-old’s rapid reflexes could be tested again on Sunday. He Luxembourg international and Gladbach academy graduate has been tipped for a career at the very top level by those in the know.
