Borussia Monchengladbach-Union Berlin is a match of the 29th day of Bundesliga and is played on Sunday at 7:30 pm: TV, formations, predictions.
Defending by all means the third place in the standings, the one that would allow to go to the Champions League. But even finishing fourth, at Union Berlin, would be fine. But the German league is still long and the standings, in the areas that count, are very short.
And it will be a tough match that the team from the German capital will have to face on Sunday evening against a Borussia Monchengladnach that has, as its goal, to make this end of the season less bitter after a disappointing start that practically closed the doors from the start to any possible dream of glory. Having secured salvation – yes, the hosts for a long time fought for that – now in the minds of the players is the will to take the most satisfaction from now until the end of the championship. And beating the third-ranked team would be important even though, of course, it could also increase regrets for what could have been and instead was not.
Union Berlin, however, is not going through a good moment of form: they have not won in three games and in general, in this short period, two defeats have come. On the other hand, there are four useful results in a row for the hosts, who in the last round also went to take a point on the field of Frankfurt. In short, even mentally Borussia is better off, which as mentioned could look for the full result. In fact, actually, it will be looking for the full result. The fact is that it might even find it.
