Most recent H2Hs: Freiburg dominance

Freiburg have not been beaten in their last nine meetings with Sunday's visitors, and they managed to get the better of their opponents four times in that period, including in three of their four most recent encounters.

Gladbach earned a point when the sides clashed in the Bundesliga in October 2025, drawing 0-0 at home in an uninspiring match of football.

Freiburg preview: A poor stretch of form

Freiburg suffered a 3-0 loss against Hoffenheim on February 14, their third defeat in five games, and they have only won two of their past six in the Bundesliga.

Philipp Lienhart will play no part in Sunday's match due to ongoing abdominal problems, and the centre-back's void may have to be filled by Matthias Ginter and Bruno Ogbus.

Predicted lineup:  Atubolu (GK), Treu, Ginter, Ogbus, Gunter, Eggestein, Osterhage; Beste, Suzuki, Grifo & Matanovic

Last five results:

  • 14/02/26: Hoffenheim 3-0 Freiburg (Bundesliga)
  • 10/02/26: Hertha Berlin 1-1 Freiburg (p) (DFB-Pokal)
  • 07/02/26: Freiburg 1-0 Werder Bremen (Bundesliga)
  • 01/02/26: Stuttgart 1-0 Freiburg (Bundesliga)
  • 29/01/26: Lille 1-0 Freiburg (Europa League)

Borussia Monchengladbach preview: Drifting towards the drop

Gladbach are only three points above 16th-placed Werder Bremen following their 3-0 defeat at the hands of Eintracht Frankfurt on Valentine's Day, and that was the sixth consecutive match that they failed to win.

Key midfielder Rocco Reitz is suspended, and the visitors will no doubt miss his defensive presence, so Yannik Engelhardt will have to be at the top of his game at Europa Park Stadion.

Predicted lineup: Nicolas (GK), Scally, Elvedi, Diks, Ullrich, Castrop, Engelhardt, Stoger, Honorat, Tabakovic & Bolin

Last five results:

  • 14/02/26: Eintracht Frankfurt 3-0 Borussia Monchengladbach (Bundesliga)
  • 07/02/26: Borussia Monchengladbach 1-0 Bayer Leverkusen (Bundesliga)
  • 31/01/26: Werder Bremen 1-1 Borussia Monchengladbach (Bundesliga)
  • 25/01/26: Borussia Monchengladbach 0-3 Stuttgart (Bundesliga)
  • 17/01/26: Hamburger SV 0-0 Borussia Monchengladbach (Bundesliga)

Player to watch: Haris Tabakovic

If Gladbach are to take anything from their clash with Freiburg, they will need striker Haris Tabakovic to rediscover his goalscoring form.
