Borussia Monchengladbach and Heidenheim return to action in German Bundesliga when they lock horns at Borussia Park on Saturday. Gerardo Seoane’s men head into the weekend on a four-game unbeaten run against the visitors since October 2011 and will be looking to extend their dominance in this fixture.
Borussia Monchengladbach were sent crashing back to earth in their final outing before the international break as they fell to a 2-1 loss against Augsburg at the WWK Arena.
This defeat came after their hard-fought 1-0 victory over Union Berlin at Borussia Park on September 28, which saw their run of two back-to-back defeats in the league come to an end.
Monchengladbach were in action during the international break as they thrashed third-tier side SC Verl 5-0 in a friendly on October 10 and Seoane will hope that result can serve as a springboard for an upturn in form in the league.
Heidenheim, on the other hand, were denied a third consecutive victory last time out as they suffered a 1-0 defeat against RB Leipzig at the Voith-Arena on October 6.
Before that, Frank Schmidt’s side snapped their two-game losing run on September 28 courtesy of a 2-0 victory over Mainz, one week before edging out Olimpija 2-1 in the UEFA Europa Conference League.
Heidenheim have picked up nine points from their six Bundesliga matches so far to sit ninth in the standings, three points and five places above Monchengladbach.

Borussia Monhengladbach vs Heidenheim Prediction
While Borussia Monchengladbach will be looking to continue from where they left off during the international break, they are in for a tough 90 minutes against Heidenheim, who have proven tough to crack this season. While we expect Schmidt’s men to pose a sterner challenge than Verl, we are backing Monchengladbach to come away with a narrow victory.
