💭
Prediction
We feel that in this game, Holstein Kiel are dangerous enough to breach the defence of this Borussia Mönchengladbach side, although one goal probably shouldn’t be as many as they’ll concede.
We therefore reckon that it will be a narrow 1-2 victory for Borussia Mönchengladbach at the end of the match. Should be a good one.
